Notes Burdock is easy, because it grows willingly in the wild without human aid. Burdock in your organic garden will have bigger, deeper roots, and more plant and seed to harvest. Burdock prefers full sun but can tolerate partial shade. Burdock is an edible root, native to Europe and Asia. In addition, the leaves and tender, young stems are edible as well. Roots can be eaten raw or cooked. Leaves and stems are cooked like spinach. |
