Product Information

Wild Edibles- A Practical Guide to Foraging, with Easy Identification of 60 Edible Plants and 67 Recipeshas taught me that my backyard is full of free food! Way to go, Sergei. -John Mackey, CEO of Whole Foods Market In this field guide to foraging wild edible plants, Sergei Boutenko (son of raw-food guru Victoria Boutenko) explores the health benefits of wild-harvested food, explains how to safely identify trailside weeds, herbs, fruits, and greens that grow worldwide, and shares his delicious, nutrient-dense recipes. Sergei Boutenko has been gathering wild plants since he was 13, when, early on in a 6-month hike from Mexico to Canada, he and his raw-food family ran out of provisions and turned to foraging for survival in the wild. Back in civilization, Boutenko was dismayed by the inferior quality of store-bought food and industrial agriculture, and began to regularly collect wild plants near his home and on his travels. Now, in Wild Edibles, he shares knowledge gleaned from years of live-food wildcrafting and thriving in harmony with nature. This practical guide to plant foraging gives hikers, backpackers, raw foodists, gardeners, chefs, foodies, DIYers, survivalists, and off-the-grid enthusiasts the tools to identify, harvest, and prepare wild edible plants. The book outlines basic rules for safe wild-food foraging and discusses poisonous plants, plant identification protocol, gathering etiquette, and conservation. Boutenko explores in detail the many rewards of eating wild flora- environmental protection, sustainability, saving money, economic self-sufficiency, and healthy living. He draws on thoroughly researched nutrition science to make a compelling case for the health benefits of a diverse, local-food diet that includes wild greens. The majority of the 60 edible plants described in this field guide can be found worldwide, including common-growing trees. Over 300 color photos make plant identification easy and safe. A chapter containing 67 high-nutrient vegan recipes-including green smoothies, salads and salad dressings, spreads and crackers, main courses, juices, and sweets-provides inspiration to join Sergei on the trail to radiant health.

A great book for learning about edible plants, easy to look at, light enough to carry around
The book arrived quickly, is of good quality - slightly shiny pages so could be taken out to use whilst foraging which is a bonus. Large enough to pack plenty of information it is not too large as to be daunting plus another advantage for carrying it out with you on your walk. The pages are well laid out, the introduction gives a great insight to Sergei's back story and makes the read even more personal and compelling. The topic is presented clearly with good detail without being either overly complex, or confusing but also not condescending. I have browsed through a few times as it is new to me and look forward to reading more in depth and eventually taking out with me. I love the full photos alongside the descriptions, the break down into both Latin and "common" names, the "Sergei says" tips and pointers as well as having some recipes at the end. Personally I rate this highly and find it a book that succeeds at what it sets out to do. Currently a friend has borrowed my copy because I raved about it and despite her great knowledge is finding it insightful and useful. Recommended!Read full review
