Wild parsnip root, free food! I used to do it all wrong with this plant because I would start harvesting when I saw they begin to flower, worried I might "miss my chance". But then I found out that it's better to harvest when it starts getting colder and it was true! The plant grows twice in the year and if you wait for the cold season ones you'll get some huge tender roots that are a great addition to any meal. The warm season roots are tough and fibrous so there's just not much to think about here, great plant to forage from autumn to winter.
