About this product

Product Information

A practical guide to finding and preparing food from hedgerows, parks, fields, woods, rivers and seashore. Aimed at the beginner, it also has a wealth of tips for the enthusiast, and, unlike other books on wild food, covers foraging in the urban environment as well as the countryside. The book shows the reader 'Where, How and When' to find the best edible berries, leaves, flowers, mushrooms, seaweed, shellfish and snails, with clear and full instructions on what is safe to eat. Foraging covers the 100 wild foods that are good to eat, fun to find, easy to identify - and will make a healthy difference to your diet and your bank balance. The book is organised by environment so when taking a walk, gardening, or having a day out you know how to gather a hedgerow harvest, a field feast, a seaside salad. Each entry features one species, and fully explains its looks, exactly where in the habitat it will be found, when it is ripe to eat, its alternative names, its history, how to harvest it, its culinary uses. There are full instructions too on preparation of each plant/fungi/animal, along with recipes for its use. Comfrey fritters, hazelnut pate, nettle beer,sorrel soup, dandelion coffee, blackberry jam....

    Wild Foods

    Wow, A rightfully deserved review for a great book. Nothing I can say can do the book justice but; I only got the book a few hours ago but can't put it down !! Very thick, loads of illustrations and so many recipes I feel you could probably live on the contents of the book and not just live but have scrummy meals that will make you go looking for more. (+tipsy drinks ). The author should be very proud of this book. It will be inspiring myself to not just use for prepping but to forage to make some truly tempting treats and foods you just cannot find in the shop. It is without doubt the most informative book about foraging I have read so far. Not just vague snippets but a complete start to finish of loads of free food. I absolutely recommend this book to preppers,lovers of natural foods or ...

  • Most critical review

    No images

    How can you have a foraging book without any images?! You have no visual guidance with this book and I would not feel confident foraging for plants based on a description alone. Very disappointing.

  • A mixture of factual information and recipes

    As I am a bit of a prepper, This book is great it is full of information on what is good to eat, where to find it and the time of year that it is available. In addition it has recipes and advice on how to prepare and cook the food and the herbs and spices to accompany it. If you are out for a country walk and want play a game with your kids " who can find the most things to eat " or if you are lost in the woods this is the book for you.

  • Ok for recipes but no illustrations.

    Not what I expected. Thought it would show pictures of nature's foods. There are quite a few recipes but if you don't know what you're picking it's not much use

  • Not for a beginner

    I got this book for my partner she liked the idea of picking wild edibles after her friend showed her wild garlic growing in the local wood. This book for a beginner is useless lots of words and no pictures to verify the identity of anything found.
