  • Take a look at what leaves I have in my Permaculture garden that are surprisingly edible! You may have a lot of these plants or trees already growing in your edible garden and have no idea that they are actually edible! Learning what parts of plants are edible is something I'm incredibly passionate about. So let's get straight into it and start off with a new plant I have just planted here to help cover the gap in my back fence....

    Did you know that every part of the sunflower plant is edible? Sunflowers are edible from root to stem to leaf to petals tobthe whole flower to the whole seed. You can fry up the buds or flowers and stir fry them in olive oil with salt or bacon grease, and the Buds taste as good as artichokes. Not quite, but a similar flavor! Some people wait until the flower has bloomed or started to produce young immature seeds, then they stir fry. I have not waiting for my buds to flower.

      Yes, all pumpkin leaves and flowers are edible. The new shoot can be lightly boil, or stir fry with garlic or with meat. The not so old leaves and it stem need to peel the outside strings like bean, wash well, chop and stir fry. You can also eat the tiny pumpkin with the flowers still attach, cut in half lengh wise and steam or stir fry.
