Product Description
Raw Edible Wild Plants contains information on over 90 wild plants that are commonly found in the British Isles and which can be eaten as part of the raw food diet. Many of these plants can be found in other areas of the world too, including much of Europe and parts of North America. It explains why we should be eating wild plants, which parts of these plants can be safely eaten raw and guidelines on foraging.
Raw wild plants are unadulterated, unprocessed and unpackaged. They are locally grown and in season. Unlike today's modern hybrids, which are unable to grow without a great deal of help and persuasion, wild plants naturally thrive in their local environment.
Britain is heavily dependent on imported food. In the event of a crisis and our foods supplies are cut off, these are the plants we will need to turn to for food. Knowing what local plant foods are safe to eat ahead of a tragedy could really make a difference. Knowing which plants can be eaten raw will increase our chances of survival, particularly if fuel supplies are low or non-existent, and we have no means of cooking.
Raw wild plants are high in nutrition. They provide us with beneficial nutrients that are lacking in today's fast growing, highly processed and over cooked food. These plants are organically grown and completely natural. They are also completely free so are ideal for those on a low income or tight budget. Wild plants are the ultimate sustainable survival food but suitable for every day use.
