.... but I agree taste good and it's good for ya. The things folks mow down and pave over astound me.
O.W.There are no emergencies for those who are truly prepared.

The first picture could be of Amaranth / Pigweed. ( Are the stems & leaves softly hairy? )
They are said to be equally as good as Lambs Quarter / Goosefoot.
I'm getting ready to step out and see what I can find in my area. Also looking for Nettles... I hear they are good also; dropping them in boiling water eliminates their sting.

Never heard of pine needle tea, Is it just made out of boiled green needles and which kind of trees is better? I love wild raspberry leaf tea, just pick the leaves and dry them and boil it up, it is a mild very good flavored and is good for you. I will be collecting quite a bit of it and drying it this year.
