I’ve only had purslane once that I can recall, but I absolutely loved it. Unfortunately, I think that if I want to get my hands on it here, I’m probably going to have to grow it myself!

I have never seen purslane anywhere near me but how I’d love to try it, especially after your beautiful photograph! The photo of the woman and her produce is amazing – here is what it really means to know where your food comes from!
