Mountain States Foraging: 115 Wild and Flavorful Ed

Great book. Good pictures. Covers a lot of wild edibles with nice descriptions. My kids have taken it to the mountains and found so many things to identify, bring home, and also experiment with ways to eat them. This book includes how to beat use the plant or berry and ideas. I have only had it a few weeks and already learned a lot. I’m a total beginner when identifying plants of any kind but this book has already given me some knowledge.

Good one for Utah Uintas but a little too big for backpacking

I bought this book and the companion book, Mountain States Medicinal Plants by Briana Wiles. They both have beautiful illustrations and clear instructions on how to identify, harvest and use wild plants. She also includes instructions for ethical harvest and sustainability. Both books earned a place in my resource library and will be purchased again for gifts.

I love this book. My husband and I take this and "Mountain States Medicinal Plants" (also by Briana Wiles) out foraging at very least once a week. The author did an amazing job describing how to identify so many plants and made it easy with clear pictures. Our lives are forever changed!

This book is super cool. Great pictures, concise information, including warnings about lookalikes. Very cool. This book got me super interested in plants.
