These Are the Edible Native Plants to Add to Your Garden
When we talk about native plants, we’re often referring to landscaping, but what about growing your own edible native plant garden?

Meanwhile, planting edible native plants helps to forge a connection between the way we live now, and the way communities in the West have existed for thousands of years. “Just growing these plants is a way to tap into the continuum of time,” says Evan Meyer, the executive director of the Theodore Payne Foundation. “By growing edible plants, your garden can become a much more meaningful place.”
