Healthy soil and sustainable growing

Harvey,

I have been trying to find a picture of this comfrey but haven't been able
to yet. If I have seen it before I didn't know what it was. It sounds like
something a person could grow in fence rows and use for compost. If you have
a link to a picture of it please post it.
