In recent years, foraging has become a popular pastime. As an antidote to the stresses of modern life, more and more people are flocking to forests, fields and hedgerows in pursuit of all the benefits it brings.

But if you are new to foraging or haven’t done it for a while, sometimes it’s tricky to know where to go and what to pick. Not to mention the dos and don’ts of foraging safely and responsibly that can leave even the most adept forager confused.

So, whether you’re a complete beginner or wanting to brush up on your existing skills, and no matter where you live, this resourceful little book will help you:

– Learn the essentials of foraging, including the dos and don’ts, equipment you need and where you can do it
– Discover what you can and can’t forage and how to identify it
– Use your foraged foods to make delicious dishes and drinks

My Thoughts:

Foraging is not something I thought I would be interested in but this book proved me wrong. I do go blackberry picking so I assume that is foraging but this handy book goes into some much more detail and kept me quiet for an hour reading through it totally fascinated with what I did not actually know. I liked the way the book is set out. Do’s and don’ts and the different items you will need to help you forage. Also what you can and cannot forage if you were out and about, I found this section very interesting to learn about. Also the best section was the recipes once you have foraged the items you can make some tasty food and drinks too. It is a handy and practical guide to foraging and very informative too.

I received an ARC copy of this book for an honest review.
