If I remember correctly, this Cow Parsnip seed may have been about one third of an inch long. Thought it had an interesting surface texture. Photographed on Keith Logan's property on June 17th.

This very tall, wild plant grows in moist, open forests and meadows. Stems can be from 1-2.5 m tall and the plant is quite impressive. The young roots of this plant can be cooked like parsnips.
