Nowadays, a lot of people dislike dandelions taking over their backyards and will do whatever they can to rid the grass of them. But up until about the 1800's, people would pull the grass out of their lawns to actually make more room for dandelions and other useful weeds, like chickweed, chamomile and mulva. This is because the dandelion has many medicinal and nutritional benefits. These days, the dandelion is still prized for its use in a variety of homemade recipes, as well as the many ways it can be used for good health and healing.
