[Gpdd] CARE: Are dandelion flowers edible?

[John Zimmer]

My piggies THRIVE on dandelions! They are very rich in vitamin c and other nutrients, too. Fresh clover, timothy, and chamomile are great, too! In fact, in the summer months, this is the bulk of their fresh diet. In the winter months they get romaine, endive, spinach and parsley - the latter two sparingly. Plus carrots and fresh fruit all year round. The only things I don't feed them is onion, potato, cuke, and cabage. Though, I've always wondered if cuke is okay so long as there's no wax on the skin? Otherwise, they generally get scraps of whatever I'm using in the kitchen, too, such as celery, asparagus, etc.
