    At least that’s a tree. Cutting down a tree is pretty doable, not like Japanese Knotweed, which is fucking unkillable

      We have a saying here that applies to Japanese Knotweed: if you can’t beat it, eat it.

      The young plants have a rhubarb like taste, we made cake with it once.

          All of these make my knees hurt from remembering my years in americorps

          I’ll add eastern red cedar - not a bad tree by any means, but we would cut it out from prairies and hike the material to the top of the nearest prairie bluff to burn it safely in 100°+ humid weather.
