Wild Alfalfa: Medicago sativa

This Wild Alfalfa is only included here as a reference. Not exactly edible for us, except for the sprouts (in small doses, it can create a lot of problems for people with Autoimmune disorders - so I tend to give this plant a wide berth), but the flowers are important for bees and other pollinators.

I do love alfalfa honey, though.
