Food from your Forest Garden: How to harvest, cook and preserve your forest garden produce

I like the layout of the book and the many recipes. However, a recipe on how to cook squirrel is going too far! I will starve before I eat a rodent. Not only that, but I love squirrels and will never ever hurt them. Sorry, but this recipe does not belong in a book on foraging.

Wonderful book, high quality matt paper, good fotographs.Chapter about harvesting, Drying, Fermentation making jams and chutneys, pickling, infusions, etc...what about a Szechuan infused rice vinegar? Many helpful tables summarising the parameters.Edible permaculture plants are introduced grouped for season. More plants here than on many other permaculture books. The recipes are excellent inspiration and seeded in through out the whole book....already the titles are mouth watering: Alexanders and Babbinghton leak linguine, fiddle head fritters, daylilly and courgette soup, turkish rocket and potato salat, toffee medlars....Finally extensive overview tables at the end, e.g. by month and indices. Great!

I will cherish this book! It is so inspiring, bringing the forest garden alive as potential yummy culinary cuisine. No longer will you be bemused and confused by your produce! Very well presented and easy to follow recipes, with heaps of ideas and exciting creations to try. If you have a forest garden, you must have this book!

both very good buys and looking forward to making some of the interesting recipes. i love foraging and going home to cook up something that from the wild and free!!

Very good book full of very useful information not found elsewhere. Recipes and charts for harvesting and preservation are included.
