In response, Boudreau and Hawke have provided a compendium of wild edible plants in North America. Foraging for Survival is a comprehensive breakdown of different plant species from bearded lichen to taro, and from all over the United States. There are also tips for growing local native plants in the backyard to facilitate learning and enhance table fare at home.

  • Great book. Excellent quality. Great value.

    This is a high quality, full color, excellent, high quality glossy paper book. The information is quite practical and useful. My only disappointment is that the main focus is on native/wild plants in sub-tropical climates, and I am interested in foraging information in South Dakota.

  • Lacking Data But Useful

    Lacking sufficient data and pictures. Also doesn’t describe the plants looks and uses at various stages of growth. However, it is quite useful for desperate or starving situations. Worth reading!
