Publisher Comments

The Pacific Northwest is a veritable feast for foragers. The forests, meadows, streambanks, and even the weedy margins of neighborhoods are home to a surprising number of delicious wild edible plants. Douglas Deur, a lifetime Northwest forager, shares his insights and experiences, showing you what to look for, when and where to look, and how to gather in a responsible way.

Pacific Northwest Foraging is a hardworking guide packed with detailed information and clear photography for the safe identification of more than 120 wild plants. It also features a seasonal guide for foraging year-round and collecting tips for sustainable harvesting. It is applicable to Oregon, Washington, British Columbia, and southeast Alaska.

Review

"Pacific Northwest Foraging may change the way you see the world." Pacific Northwest Magazine

i've read several books on foraging the northwest and find this one by far the best. great detail: info about the plant's growth and habitat, how to use the leaf/stem/root/flower/fruit, encouragement on how to propagate or spread these valuable plants, clear pix and descriptions. the book is a sturdy paper back and small enough to carry in a large pocket on a walk in the woods.

Great quality pictures and simple, but well written definitions make this a great guide. A good starting point for any one with an interest in foraging
