Hènri sure is thrilled to have spring fare again. Just finished buying some organic annuals for his edible garden, hopefully will have that finished soon and can share some pics.

Today's salad consisted of dandelion leaves and flowers, some hawksbit leaves, broadleaf plantains, clover, and some lilac flowers for garnish. Everything is so tender and lush here this time of year.

What kind of spring salads are people whipping up for their torts? Curious what's popping off in different parts of the world.

Does your tort chow the grass on it's own? I sneak little pieces of quack grass in there for some extra fibre but he tends to high grade them out haha....I just hope he eats some as collateral damage. Good stuff.

I've got tons of dandelions and hibiscus leaves I've been feeding. No hibiscus flowers here yet though.

They usually start blooming here around June and I get more than enough flowers to dry out and have all year usually.
