 Thanks, Phlip and Mordonna.  I have heard this could be prepared safely, but
 never felt comfortable with it, but I think I'll try it next spring.  I
 certainly grow it in abundance, especially on the downhill side of the yard
 where the chicken coop has abundantly fertilized the soil and the monster
 poke sallets grow.

    Never mind the greens--I'd like to find out how to make ink from the 
berries, as I've heard was done in pioneer days. I always had fun as a kid, 
playing with the berries in the yard and trying to draw with the 
juice........... Just lucky I didn't poison myself, of course! But for some 
reason I was never tempted to eat any, no matter how pretty they were. Guess 
my folks must have drummed the "not edible" lesson in fairly well! ;-)
