Summary of David Nash's The Prepper's Guide to Foraging

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview: #1 The best way to learn about wild plants is to take the time to study them together with an expert. This process takes a long time, but you will learn the most in the safest way possible.#2 The best way to learn about wild edible and medicinal plants is to spend time doing research in a well-stocked library. Do not rely solely on the Internet for your information, as quality control is nonexistent and mistakes can be fatal.#3 I like to play fast and loose with certain things, but with others I force myself to go slow and work the right way. I prefer to gather five or more informational resources and vet them together before trusting my life to a piece of information.#4 The Universal Edibility Test is supposed to allow a person to determine if they can safely eat a wild plant, but many plants are extremely toxic, and even a small amount will result in death.
