 Dandelion greens

other than out in the yard ( i don’t have any dandelions) is there any place dandelion greens can be purchased? You would think since I pretty much ignore my yard all but to mow it twice a month I would have dandelions a foot high but nope not a one.
But I see them mentioned a lot as a food source I can easily find collard greens and spring mix(I pick out the spinach and this brand has no iceberg in it) but other greens are hard to find around here.

What is everyone that has been doing this awhile feel is the best greens to feed?

 Dandelion greens

type in your internet search bar. "Dandalion Seeds" I dont remember the site i got them from however i am shure there is a bunch of seed sites. You can grow them super easy outside and you can also grow during winter in a pot by a window. Allmost impossible to kill a dandalion plant and you can also be sure there is no pesticided or road runoff slop on them. The only thing i have a problem with is getting them to flower. The greens are more important then the flower. but it would be nice to have flowers. So my guy gets hybiscus flowers instead. I also tryed growing hoolyhock. Got that from the deer fern farms site however my guy didnt like the leaf or the flowers on thos. Hope this helps you
