Creative Californians Repurpose Invasive Wild Mustard Plant

Wild black mustard proliferated in California after heavy rains, smothering native plants and posing fire risks.
Artists, designers, and chefs are harvesting the plant to make dyes, pesto, paper, fertilizer, and condiments.
Foragers have led hikes to pick the peppery flowers and leaves for eating.
Workshops show how to creatively reuse the plant.
Repurposing the plant has made an impact, though people should know fields were once more colorful.
