About this product

Product Information

Whether you're a hiker taking a walk through your local wilderness, or a chef looking for new ingredients to incorporate in your dishes, Foraging for Survival is the book for you. As consumerism and a meat-heavy, processed diet become the norm and the world's population continues to grow at an exponential rate, more and more people are looking toward a more sustainable path for food. Authors Douglas Boudreau and Mykel Hawke believe that the future of food lies in the wild foods of times spanning back to before the mass-agriculture system of today. People have become distanced from the very systems that provide their food, and younger generations are increasingly unable to identify even the trees in their backyards. 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. Other information you'll find inside: A list of different types of edible wild plants Foraging techniques Bugs and other grubs that can be consumed Warning signs of poisonous plants And much more! Start eating wild today with Foraging for Survival !

  • 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!
