Get in tune with the rhythms of nature with this month-by-month guide to foraging. Learn how to identify wild plants correctly, harvest them at their prime, and use them in delicio us recipes and relaxing wildcrafting projects. Each plant is accompanied by photography to help with accurate identification. Gathering wild food summons us to become active participants in our environment, fostering a profound sense of connection to the natural world around us. At the heart of foraging lies an intricate understanding of the changing seasons, the landscape, and the delicate ecosystems that thrive within. Danielle Gallacher has been foraging for over 20 years, and in 'The Forager's Almanac' she shares her expertise on how to safely and sustainably harvest our countryside's edible bounties, and how to use them in your cooking - such as pickles, preserves, ciders and lemonades.
