Where I'm living I literally cannot find dandelions! Back when I was on the west coast they seemed to plague our yards from spring till winter. This weekend my boyfriend and I were back on the west coast in Oregon for a wedding and while they were setting up the reception near a field I was out picking dandelions to bag up their fluffy seeds to bring back! Everyone thought I was insane for gathering weed seeds, but they were growing untreated and wild in a field. I'm going to plant some trays of these dandelions for my rabbits and tortoise to munch. Oh the things we do
