Have you ever wondered what it would be like to forage for your own food? If you answered yes to any of these questions, then keep reading...

There are some people who live off of the land completely, and others simply forage to supplement the food they eat. The one thing all foragers have done is learn about wild plants and know how to spot poisonous ones. That's what this book is here to do. Throughout this book you will learn: What it means to forage How to safely and ethically forage for foods Lists of medicinal and edible plants, and where to find them Lists of poisonous plants Recipes for using the plants The best times to forage How to identify plants ... And much more. Foraging is a rewarding and delicious process. You'll be amazed to find out how many plants around you can be eaten. Dandelions, chickweed, and purslane are all easily found in most people's yards, yet nobody realizes that they could have been eating them all along.

In this updated book, they share everything they've learned and give you the tools you need for a more rewarding and environmentally-conscious life. Whether you want to completely revamp your lifestyle or just make everyday changes that will make an impact, Self-Sufficiency for the 21st Century is the perfect place to start.
