Try to imagine yourself out in the middle of nowhere or in unfamiliar territory. No supplies, no shelter, no water and no food. What do you do?

With a little education, tenacity and knowledge you could survive. Shelter can be built, water found, a fire started and food foraged.

When it comes to foraging food in the wild you need a guide and Waterford Press’s Foraging For Wild Edible Foods Second Editionis the perfect solution.

The A Pocket Naturalist Guide is a colorful, fold-out, laminated guide that is the perfect folding guide to sustainable practices & harvesting techniques.

The portable pamphlet contains sections on Safety, Berries & Fruits, Nuts, Leaves, Shoots & Aboveground Parts, Roots, Tubers & Underground Parts and Mushrooms.

The color illustrations make it easy to spot each edible plant, contains nutrition fact and tells where to find each plant.

It’s easy-to-use, small enough to carry on your person, in a purse, a glove compartment or in a backpack. I plan on putting mine in a book on survival I carry in our car.
