Food For Free

Food For Free


















Let me introduce you to this amazing little book called "Food For Free" by Richard Mabey.  It is a pocket-sized guide to nature's own larder.  Inside there are full colour illustrations and written descriptions of many edible plants and other forageable foods around Britain's hedgerows, hills and coastline.  With foraging becoming more popular due to people returning to nature and trying to feed their families on a tighter budget than ever before, you could consider Food For Free a new food bible for finding fresh, nutritious produce out in the wilds.  Though not strictly "Treasure" in the context of this website, it will give you a guide to food that you have probably walked past a thousand times without realising what it was.  When I'm out treasure hunting I always enjoy a tasty snack or two from nature and save on food bills at the same time.  Click on the image to go to the purchase page.
