Fat Hen Seeds, Food Forest, Lamb's Quarters, Chenopodium Album, CP041C","description":"Fat Hen (Chenopodium album) \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBefore spinach found its way into every garden, there was Fat Hen, a wild green gathered and cultivated across Europe since Neolithic times. This humble, vigorous annual was once a cornerstone of cottage gardens and field edges, valued for its tender, nutrient-dense leaves and its reliability in even the poorest soils.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKnown by many names, White Goosefoot, Lamb’s Quarters, or simply Fat Hen, this ancient plant feeds both people and pollinators. Its young leaves are mild and spinach-like when steamed or sautéed, while its seeds can be ground into flour or cooked like quinoa, its close relative. Hardy, self-sowing, and generous, it thrives where other vegetables fail.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA plant once dismissed as a weed, now reclaimed as an heirloom of resilience, a reminder that good food often hides in plain sight.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBotanical name: Chenopodium album\u003cbr\u003eType: Annual green \/ edible wild herb\u003cbr\u003eZones: 3–9 (self-sows readily)\u003cbr\u003eHeight: 2–4 ft\u003cbr\u003eSun: Full sun to light shade\u003cbr\u003eSoil: Any well-drained soil, even poor or sandy\u003cbr\u003eGermination: 7–14 days\u003cbr\u003eHarvest: 30–45 days for greens; 80–100 days for seed\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is for approx 100 seeds. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe combine shipping on all seed orders, you pay one flat fee for as many seeds as you would like for no additional shipping.
