Editorial Reviews

“Karen's passion for wild food really shines through in this warmly written and well-researched book. Whether you're a beginning forager or an expert, her deliciously crafted recipes will inspire you to go out and gather.” —Eric Orr, Forager and Founder of Wild Edible (wildedible.com)

“Many believe that foraging can only safely be learned in person from an instructor. As a foraging instructor, I can say this is NOT true. With the right book, it is very easy to learn edible wild plants. Karen's book is the right book. The great pictures and clear text will have you correctly identifying and eating nature's bounty. Trust Karen, trust this book, and you'll soon be able to trust yourself!” —Dr. Mark "Merriwether" Vorderbruggen, Author of Foraging (Idiot's Guide) and creator of www.foragingtexas.com

“There are lots of cookbooks but very few that change the way you look at the world. From nettle soup to watercress salad, by way of a nibble of red clover cookies, Karen Stephenson's book is not just an incomparable guide to wild plants and foraging but a wonderful exercise in practical philosophy too. That Ancient Greek, Pythagoras, who long ago taught the wonders of nature's larder, and even once told a hungry bear to eat acorns, I just know would have loved it.” —Martin Cohen, Author of I Think Therefore I Eat
