Asking important questions about the nature of public and private space, of how we live alongside plants, how we use them, how we gather them, this is a treatise on how foraging and the knowledge that underpins it can be a radical act—an act that informs much of our attitude to the natural world, to the food we eat and to how we value the multitudinous life that surrounds us.

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.

Book Synopsis Edible Wild Plants for Beginners by : Rachel Smith
Download or read book Edible Wild Plants for Beginners written by Rachel Smith and published by Publishdrive. This book was released on 2023-11 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever looked at a plant and wondered if it was edible? Have you ever picked berries from stray bushes or plucked fresh fruit from the trees? Did you ever look at luscious berries and fruit in the wild but were skeptical about whether they were edible or not? Did you come across people who were searching for prized mushrooms in the woods? Have you ever thought of foraging? If yes, this is the perfect book for you. Agriculture wasn't introduced until a couple of thousands of years ago. Nowadays, we cannot even imagine a world where agriculture doesn't exist. So, what did our ancestors do before the first seeds of agriculture were sown? They relied on nature to obtain sustenance. For the majority of human history, we survived only due to hunting and gathering. That said, fire wasn't always available, and meat couldn't be obtained all the time. In such instances, the only means of survival for our ancestors was to gather natural foods. They used natural foods found in the wild to nourish their bodies and to heal themselves too. They did all this through foraging. Foraging is used as a form of sustenance only by a few societies these days. However, the act of forging itself is neither lost nor unsatisfying. Even in modern society and the concrete jungle most of us live in, foraging is still possible. From herbs and edible flowers to mushrooms, plants, and other natural elements, there's plenty available from nature. All you need to do is look. Foraging has several benefits. It's not only a relaxing activity, but it's a means to unplug from the hectic lifestyles most of us lead these days. It's also a great way to bond with your family and teach young ones about nature. Apart from that, foraging helps build a better relationship with nature.
