dried sunflower seed is an excellent scource of Vitamin E. I pop a handful in with the bread mix when baking fresh. Also hang the flower heads somewhere cool & dry then put them out in the winter for the birds.

The seed eating birds will love to eat the heads - and you will find seedling sunflowers all over your garden next year.

I leave my sunflower heads to turn really black and them stick them on the bird table :)

Thanks for the ideas! :)
