In this pocket-sized, "pre-field" guide, Nina shares how she got her mind right and transitioned to "forager brain"-something she believes to be more essential than memorizing plant IDs and that anyone can mostly do before even setting foot outside. You'll also learn her methods for safely identifying wild foods, over-arching ideas for how to think about cooking and eating them, basic foraging "rules" and etiquette, and her favorite resources. Nina is your enthusiastic cheerleader who encourages you to get out there-no matter where you live or your life situation. This book will get you excited about wild foods and inspired to protect wild places.
