## Description

Some wild edible plants have poisonous look-alikes, and it is important to know the difference when harvesting. Edible Wild Plants is a simplified guide to familiar and widespread species of edible berries, nuts, leaves and roots found in North America. This beautifully illustrated guide identifies over 100 familiar species and includes information on how to harvest their edible parts. It also includes a section on dangerous poisonous plants to avoid that have contact poisons that can blister skin. This convenient guide is a portable source of practical information and ideal for field use. Made in the USA.

Review: Perfect pocket guide - It's perfect! I was looking for something compact to carry & this is perfect. Separated by category, pictures, names, and even a quite extensive poisonous category. The best thing is, it will be so easy to look up a specific plant at a glance. Very well arranged. Lots of info in something so convenient. Laminate as well, so it's probably waterproof. Like I said, perfect.
Review: Good and informative - As far as guides go, this is great for anyone looking to learn about eating plants while frolicking through the forest. It is a small folding brochure weighing a little over 1 ounce and measuring 8 1/4x4 inches when folded up, so it's small enough to keep in your day bag or your bug out bag for when you're playing GI Joe in the woods living out your post-apocalyptic fantasies. As far as the information presented, it is a compact booklet so you may not learn everything there is to know about each plant, but it is enough to know if said plant is fit to shove in your mouth, and that's really all you need from a book on wild edibles. It has 6 different sections grouping plants by which part you can eat (such as "Fruits and Berries," "Leaves, Stems, and Bark," and "Roots/Tubes.") Poisonous plants are also included in their own section. The booklet includes realistic illustrations (not photos) of each plant, so as long as your eyesight is A-OK, identification won't be difficult. The descriptions of each plant typically gives a minor visual description, how to consume it safely without poisoning yourself, and warnings if a plant has any poisonous lookalikes. Included on the back are some common sense warnings and a few handy tips. I'll include a picture of one of the pages to give you a better idea of what you're getting. Why didn't the seller include a sample photo so people could see how the information in the brochure was presented? Seems dumb to leave your buyers guessing what the hell they're gonna get, you'd think the opposite would be desirable for an entrepreneur looking to sell their product
