 This might be old news, but it was on KARE11 so thought I would share.  http://www.kare11.com/story/news/local/2014/06/24/mn-residents-asked-about-toxic-weed/11301767/

This is what the MN Dept. of Agriculture says about this weed:  "Grecian foxglove is toxic to humans, livestock, and wildlife. Grecian foxglove cut and dried in hay could result in livestock poisoning. This species is also invasive and displaces desirable vegetation such as forage and native plants"

I know the heart medicine Digitalis comes from Foxglove... Certainly it would not be safe to eat much of it.
