Chillybean said:I've given up on thinking I can eradicate it. But it's there when I need to make chickweed salve. My next batch will include some of that English Plantain I cannot get rid of, either. :)

I've got a bumper crop of plantain that's almost ready to harvest. I was hoping for equal amounts of comfrey and plantain for a salve, but I just didn't plant enough comfrey for all this!

As far as the chickweed goes, my son (who turns three next week) loves to pull weeds and feed them to the chickens. He'll actually pull ANYTHING and feed it to the chickens but we're still working on selecting the right stuff
