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.

Ten years ago, Nina and her family ditched city life for a 5-acre homestead in rural Maine. She still dresses like the guitar player for her band that never made it, but these days you're more likely to find her rocking out with a fistful of dandelion greens than playing a gig at a Brooklyn dive bar. She runs around in the woods making weird music videos and hunting trout lily, sheep sorrel, and the occasional wild turkey. Nina and her family tend chickens, horses, cats, fruit trees, and an enormous garden. And they eat food. LOTS OF FOOD. But you don't have to be like them to get into some wild grub. Wherever you live, whatever you do, whoever you are-you can make wild food part of your life. Nina wants to get you excited about wild food so you'll be inspired to protect wild places.
