We're taking preorders for "Rare Harvest: A Field Guide to Foraging, Farming, and Reclaiming Your Connection to the Earth" by Indy Officinalis who's a forger, urban farmer and National Geographic star. Link in comments.

This practical guide will help you learn the basics of foraging, the “whys” of foraging, and common terms. It includes tips on how to measure and identify specimens and how to make foraged recipes such as Dandelion Fritters and Yarrow B**r. This book also has journal space to record your own observations. 🥂
