NOW AVAILABLE IN PAPERBACK! The Self-Sufficiency series presents single-volume explorations of everything from Home Brewing to Natural Home Remedies to Beekeeping and Preserving. Each book is illustrated with full-color drawings and takes the reader step-by-step through each skill in clear language that explains technical terminology and difficult procedures rather than simply (as is the case with so many similar treatments) avoiding them. These are the kind of guides that, when carefully read and followed, can make anyone an amateur expert in the particular skill addressed. This book ties in with current eco-trends of self-sufficiency, organic food, and local sourcing. It provides a comprehensive and accessible introduction to foraging for beginners.

Very useful.
Very useful when out and about in the countryside. I was looking for Sloe berry's and was able to find quite a lot in a nearby forest plus the book gave me a recipe for Sloe Gin.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

It depends what you’re wanting to get from this book
For me, this book was lacking on the detail I was looking for. But if you want an at-a-glance plant reference with a recipe attached it’s fine. I would have liked greater details regarding the plant in question, both pictorial and descriptive. This is rather generalized. For example, many uses for the Elderberry Bush are overlooked, and it’s the same throughout the book, which is why I gave it 3 stars.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Lovely little colourful book with great pictures. Ideal to take out walking in a rucksack
I have bought this for a family member for Christmas who likes to gather what she can from nature. This lovely little book is handy, colourful and informative. Will be ideal for carrying out walking and the clear pictures will help her to identify what is safe and what is not. Really pleased with this purchase.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

This book has two titles
I have this book already it has been retitled. So now I've bought twice. Not good value to me as I paid postage too this time. If you don't have this book it is a good buy 🙂Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
