OLD GOAT 6 Posted August 6, 2011 Report Share Posted August 6, 2011 A cook on the wild side by Hugh Fearnley - Whittinstall publised in 1997,still a good book & the one & only Food for free by Mabey ! If u have the money u must get Flora Britannica by Mabey, great book about the history of our wild flowers,plants & trees. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

forest of dean redneck 11,788 Posted August 6, 2011 Report Share Posted August 6, 2011 (edited) richard mabey food for free book Got the pocket version of that, quite handy. yeah it is also one for keeping at home is the concise british flora in colour by w .keble martin. have seen it on net but postage is always high due to size and weight. edit to add its not a foraging book but a good plant identifacation book.

Mooch. 177 Posted August 6, 2011 Report Share Posted August 6, 2011 Tomm Parr writes an extensive month by month foraging post on the Living Off the Land board. Very informative. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
