Eating Wild - Paperback

by Robert F. Lee (Author)

Organic gardening has developed a huge following, yet, the original "organic gardening" has not. Eating Wild explore the world of harvesting our vegetables and fruits where they grow naturally, whether it is the common weeds we find in our gardens and lawns, or the myriad plants that can be harvested in the wild. There, they grow untainted by pesticides and herbicides. Eating Wild provides listings of more than fifty North American herbs and other edible plants that can be wild harvested, along with descriptions of their medicinal and nutritional benefits. He provides dozens of recipes and scores of remedies using these plants. His knowledge of plants and intimate understanding of their uses comes from six decades of using these natural food sources, as well as from information passed down from his ancestors, and the First Nations people of North America, who provided him with much of the wisdom to enjoy wild plants. Eating Wild is an ongoing work, with regular blogs by the author found at www.robertflee.com, or http: //eatingwild.blogspot.com.
