Plant ID
Based on the opposite leaves, hairy stem, connate (fused) leafstalk bases, winged petiole, three prominent veins, and relatively weak marginal teeth, I suspect this is Jerusalem artichoke (Helianthus tuberosus).

Aha, thank you!
I wondered if some of the yellow flowers over there were those.
