Foraging for Wild Food

Update - the new version of the foraging guide is now available.

Have you ever looked at a wild plant, and wondered if it was edible? Foraging is very popular these days, but alas, most field guides on wild plants do not give any information on edibility, and most foraging guides are a cumbersome item to take into the field. They do, of course give information on how to prepare the food, along with interesting historical snippets, and other useful data, and are still valuable items to have on the reference shelf, especially if you want to take up foraging more seriously. To lighten your load, I have prepared a list of plants, which will only add a few extra pages to the field guide, but give you that valuable missing information.

The new revised and expanded UK list has details of around 350 plants, which are considered by some publications to be edible. The list includes trees, shrubs, coastal and wetland plants. Details include common name, botanical name and family, caution notes, which part is edible and in what way it may be consumed. Following the plant list is a key, and important information on safety, as well as some additional information, which must be used in conjunction with the list.

The full, illustrated foraging handbook contains all the information of the free list, but also contains over fifty detailed plant profiles with photographs, and is colour coded throughout for ease of reference.
