  • Great foraging

    Book makes it easy to ID plants and gave a good look alike description to watch for the more dangerous ones. Pictures helped with ID and good advice on how to pick, how much you can pick and how to forage safely. I live in Michigan and enough of the plants in this book overlap with my local area as well. Informative, descriptive. Would recommend

  • Buy it you'll need nothing else

    Many books on foraging only have a few guides and most only have a few color photo then the rest is pencil drawing. this book has out done its self with 120 photos everything is in such great detail after looking at many of the other books available before making a decision on what book would make the cut this one blows all of the other books away this book will give you everything you need she hides nothing so your not having to buy another book she puts it all out there in one book and I will continue buying other books she has put out she's amazing

  • One of the best foraging guides available

    I keep giving mine away, like Im spreading a religious movement or something...then I panic cause I don’t feel I have the best guide to check something i wanna eat. I have reordered this same book 3 times now. No more giveaways...i think;). Buy it!!

  • Looking for a little more class 101

    There are lots of pics of edibles but there seemed to be alot of poisonous non edibles that are said to look very similar and yet, no pics to differentiate them. So, if its better safe than sorry you could be left hungry. Otherwise very informative
