One of the bountiful edible resources that exists in the Great Plains is the Prairie Turnip. This edible was an essential part of Native American diet. It was first taxonomized by Meriwether Lewis of the Lewis and Clark Expedition and his incisive description of the plant is still respected by experts. Please remember to do your own research about identification. Do not rely solely on this video or on Lewis' description.

Disclaimer: As always, please remember to do your own extensive research before using any plans for consumption or medicine. Do not rely on any of my videos for positive identification. If you find written sources from credentialed authors, you can develop the knowledge and confidence to safely engage in foraging. I am an amateur ethnobotanist myself, so everyone can forage safely and confidently if they are willing to put in the time to develop an “expertise” derived from expert sources.
