Default Hunting, Foraging, Cooking and Eating...!!

Hi...


There's a whole world of edible flora and fauna right outside your door...all local, organic and seasonal...!!

If you want to learn to track down, prep and cook everything from prickly pears to snowshoe hares, you will want to read Hunt, Gather, Cook.

It's available from Men's Workwear, Women's Work Wear, Work Clothing - Duluth Trading Company.

Thought you'd like to know about this book.

Went to Amazon to check on this book. No cheap used ones so it must be a pretty good read. Thanks PF1

That sounds like a great book. I have always been interested in ways to bring in more natural and foraged foods. I actually just watched a TV show about exactly that and it was extremely interesting.

Hi...


You're all welcome.

Incidently, that site also has some other "survival" and outdoor books available, which look interesting.

I'm so glad you brought this to our attention. So many of our young people today would starve without the grocery store. I'm a farm girl and we used to grow and find everything we ate. I am excited to take a look at this book. Thanks!

Thanks for the great find! I am actually planning to take a class in the spring about all of our local edibles, and how to find them. I can't wait!

Thanks for sharing the book. I've foraged for wild garlic, blackberries, herbs like sorrel, stinging nettles and field mushrooms. I would definitely like to expand my foraging knowledge as it is quite limited. I'm going to buy this book.

Hmm, that book sounds very interesting! I don't know much about foraging but it would be interesting to learn. I've often looked around at yards or meadows and wondered what was edible.

I'd like to see something regional. I'm in the southeast... I don't need to clutter my brain with plants I'm not going to see or use.


Read my blog with its now correct address:
