Mesquite tree - Honey, Screwbean, Velvet Mesquites - DesertUSA

http://www.desertusa.com/jan97/du-smesquite.html

This is a good site for basic info about mesquite trees, and two kinds ofbwhich I'm pretty sure we have on the property: honey mesquite and screwball mesquite. The both of these can be used for various degrees of food/cooking and of course firewood. Did you know mesquite wood is smokeless... and tasty to cook with.

Honey mesquite brings bees-which we all need for gardening!

The ground up mesquite bean is great for treating diabetes.

Back to looking for more edible wild yum...
