Download or read book Eating Wild written by Robert Lee and published by Robert Lee. This book was released on 2013-08-22 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

Download or read book Peace Like a River written by Leif Enger and published by Grove/Atlantic, Inc.. This book was released on 2007-12-01 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A boy searches for his fugitive brother in 1960s Minnesota in this New York Times bestseller—“a stunning debut novel [of] faith, miracles, and family” (Publishers Weekly, starred review). An eleven-year-old asthmatic boy, Reuben Land has reason to believe in miracles. But he will soon learn that life, even when touched by the divine, is never easy. Along with his father and poetically inclined sister, Reuben finds himself on a cross-country search for his outlaw older brother who has been controversially charged with murder. The Land family’s journey is touched by serendipity and the kindness of strangers, and its remarkable conclusion demonstrates how family, love, and faith can stand up to the most terrifying of enemies—and the most tragic of fates. “A rich mixture of adventure, tragedy, and healing,” Peace Like a River is “a collage of legends from sources sacred and profane—from the Old Testament to the Old West, from the Gospels to police dramas” (Ron Charles, The Christian Science Monitor).

Book Synopsis The Wild Wisdom of Weeds by : Katrina Blair
Download or read book The Wild Wisdom of Weeds written by Katrina Blair and published by Chelsea Green Publishing. This book was released on 2014-10-07 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Wild Wisdom of Weeds is the only book on foraging and edible weeds to focus on the thirteen weeds found all over the world, each of which represents a complete food source and extensive medical pharmacy and first-aid kit. More than just a field guide to wild edibles, it is a global plan for human survival. When Katrina Blair was eleven she had a life-changing experience where wild plants spoke to her, beckoning her to become a champion of their cause. Since then she has spent months on end taking walkabouts in the wild, eating nothing but what she forages, and has become a wild-foods advocate, community activist, gardener, and chef, teaching and presenting internationally about foraging and the healthful lifestyle it promotes. Katrina Blair’s philosophy in The Wild Wisdom of Weeds is sobering, realistic, and ultimately optimistic. If we can open our eyes to see the wisdom found in these weeds right under our noses, instead of trying to eradicate an “invasive,” we will achieve true food security. The Wild Wisdom of Weeds is about healing ourselves both in body and in spirit, in an age where technology, commodity agriculture, and processed foods dictate the terms of our intelligence. But if we can become familiar with these thirteen edible survival weeds found all over the world, we will never go hungry, and we will become closer to our own wild human instincts—all the while enjoying the freshest, wildest, and most nutritious food there is. For free! The thirteen plants found growing in every region across the world are: dandelion, mallow, purslane, plantain, thistle, amaranth, dock, mustard, grass, chickweed, clover, lambsquarter, and knotweed. These special plants contribute to the regeneration of the earth while supporting the survival of our human species; they grow everywhere where human civilization exists, from the hottest deserts to the Arctic Circle, following the path of human disturbance. Indeed, the more humans disturb the earth and put our food supply at risk, the more these thirteen plants proliferate. It’s a survival plan for the ages. Including over one hundred unique recipes, Katrina Blair’s book teaches us how to prepare these wild plants from root to seed in soups, salads, slaws, crackers, pestos, seed breads, and seed butters; cereals, green powders, sauerkrauts, smoothies, and milks; first-aid concoctions such as tinctures, teas, salves, and soothers; self-care/beauty products including shampoo, mouthwash, toothpaste (and brush), face masks; and a lot more. Whether readers are based at home or traveling, this book aims to empower individuals to maintain a state of optimal health with minimal cost and effort.
