Great reference book for a novice Midwestern forager
This book seems like a pretty comprehensive listing of edible and palatable plants in the Midwest, and is going to be very helpful as a starting point. It would have made it a thick volume, but I would have liked more information and ideas on how to process/use the various plants. However, that's what Google is for I guess.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

A very good over view of the edible plants of the mid-west. I just wish it had more recipes for the plants. Know what plants to eat is all goood and well but ya should have a hand full of tasty ways to fix each of them.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
