Awesome information Bryant! Thank you for taking the time to explain it. I had never heard of pokeweed until I moved to central Georgia, now I've got it coming out my ears, lol.

Thanks, Bryant. I would be afraid to try cooking it because of the toxicity though 😁. I worry about my dogs eating the berries, I don't want to use poisons or chemicals because my dogs eat the grass also... Lol!

I have a different problem with weeds. I have poke weed growing around my house and I have dogs so I really need to get rid of it. I've used boiling water out front in my sidewalk and driveway to kill grass in the cracks. Would that work for the pokeweed? If I cut it down then pour the water on the stubby, would that kill the root? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hi Rick! I love your idea of a secret garden. I am looking forward to your webinar in the Beyond Off Grid online summit. Welcome to Permies!

I am just starting out and I love this idea of a deep pantry and a "par" so I don't run out of something before I buy more. These ideas and suggestions are so helpful to me! Thanks everyone!
