Edible wild plants, herbs, trees – easy to find, identify and use
Katrin and Frank Hecker take their readers by the hand and show them everything that can be found in the forest, in the meadow and by the water to naturally enrich our diet and home medicine cabinet.
- In which habitat do the plants grow?
- How can they be identified, collected and prepared?
- What significance do they have in medicine and mythology?
With a small harvest, it's off to the kitchen, where nature's bounty is processed: ribwort plantain becomes cough syrup, tree resin becomes an all-purpose ointment and dandelion root becomes invigorating coffee – explained step by step in a very simple way.
A practical companion for anyone who wants to rediscover or experience nature for the first time.
