Broomcorn is grown mainly in Africa and Asia for its edible grains, as a cereal. This variety grows shiny grains of varied hues, going from beiges to browns, reds, and blacks, making it a great plant for ornamental purposes. On top of that, once the grains have been harvested, the remaining stems can be combined to form a compostable broom.
Variety obtained from Balais de Sorcière.

This vegetable thrives in the cold. Therefore, it should be sown early in the spring, or at the end of summer, in an compost enriched soil. Its leaves are allegedly as rich in beta-Carotene as carrots, and a good source of vitamins A and C, and of iron.
We produce 95% of our seeds on our farm. Unfortunately, cornsalad seeds are hard to produce in Quebec. These seeds were thus purchased from an organic seed saver in the United States.

When it comes to common purslane, saying "ancient vegetable" is an euphemism; purslane was known by the Egyptians 4000 years ago. It was then, like many other plants, "forgotten". It is nonetheless making a comeback on our market shelves thanks to market gardeners growing ancient varieties. In a salad or mesclun, purslane is eaten fresh. Its leaves are tender and filled with omega-3 and antioxidants. It is also emollient, detoxifying, diuretic, and laxative if eaten in large quantities. Chewing on a couple leaves will soothe gum inflammation and mild sore throats.

Common comfrey is widely used in organic agriculture as green manure. It can also be made into comfrey liquid manure or added to compost. This helps with soil fertility and thus plant growth.
Comfrey is also very popular among bumblebees and other bees that thoroughly enjoy its sweet nectar.
The plant easily reach a meter in height. The stem is a little prickly, and the leaves are large, alternate, pointy, and covered in hair. Above all of this, shoots grow where pink or purple flowers bloom in the middle of summer.
*For better germination rates, the seeds should be stratified. To do this, place the seeds in small bag full of humid sand of soil, and put the said bag in the fridge for 2 weeks.
*This comfrey is not Russian comfrey (such as Bocking 14). Russian comfrey doesn't produce seeds and would therefore be tricky to sell in seed packages.
Warning. We advise against regular comfrey consumption. The plant contains pyrrolizidine alkaloids which can be toxic for the liver in high dosage.

Native to North America. The strawberry blite is one of those forgotten vegetables that are making a strong comeback to our gardens. It is grown both for its leaves that can be eaten raw in a salad or steamed, and for its red berries. Although, do not be mistaken: despite their appearance and the name, these berries taste more like beets than strawberries. The fruit should be eaten in moderate quantities as the seeds contains some toxic compounds. The fruits were also used by Native Americans to make a red dye.

Tetragon is usually grown for its leaves, which can be added in salads or cooked. Thanks to its ability to withstand difficult climates, this plant grows readily in the wild in China, Reunion Island, and New Zealand. It is also fairly easy to grow in Quebec, but it will behave as an annual since it cannot tolerate frost.
Held up by a round stem, tetragon has a really unique look with its thick leaves and quadrangular fruits. Good source of vitamin B1, B2 and C; the New Zealand spinach is both delicious and nutritious!
