- There are a lot of weeds growing that is great healing herbs. The farmer does not like the dock because it does great harm to his crops. There is a plant called Saint Patricks wart wed and there is a great cure on it.
There are also weeds for drawing and healing sores. The roots of the daisies mixed through other things are a great cure for a burn. Another terrible weed to be found in the land is the thistle.
The dandelion is very good for young turkeys and also the nettle is very good for them.- Collector
