See that tall spiky plant with the fuzzy leaves? Mullein. It's a bi annual plant. The flower spike is a second year plant. I bet it's growing all around you.

you can dry the leaves and make tea with it. The tea is a good expectorant. You can infuse the flowers in oil to fight ear infections. It's a good detoxifier. Google it. It is a great herb.

Scarcity and abundance could also play into it. The key probably is sustainability.The road to glory cannot be followed with much baggage.

i was wondering specifically about digging up plants in wilderness areas to use their roots, but after thinking about it, my usage of these plants is likely to be in their dried form and not fresh. (Except for ramps, berries, etc.)Lost in the right direction. -

I have a couple of friends whom claim a deep abiding religious fervor. However when the subject of legalizing medical marijuana is broached, both claim the usage of the plant promotes evil behavior and are against legalization.
My argument centers upon if the Creator placed the plant upon the earth, she meant to benefit humans.
