Description

For centuries, people have looked to nature for healing and food. Today, our ancient hedgerows, woodlands, and forests are still full of remedies waiting to be discovered. This guide shows you how to make the most of the natural world, using plants like rose hips, elderberries, and mugwort to create delicious preserves, healing balms, and soothing drinks. You'll find photographs to help you safely identify edible plants, advice on what's available in each season, and guidance on how to prepare and preserve your finds. The book also explores the fascinating folklore and history of foraging, adding depth and context to your foraging adventure. Every walk is an opportunity to learn, identify a new plant, gather something to eat, and reconnect with nature. With this guide, you can start your foraging journey and discover the joys of using nature's jewels to improve your health and wellbeing.
