Amaranth

I threw down some Amaranth in the garden to see what it would do.  The chickens love the greens, and I've steamed some - they are okay to eat.  They are blooming now.  Super easy to grow and drought tolerant.  The bugs like the young leaves, but once they get a certain size the bugs leave them alone.
