The Flowerpot Forager

Offert en anglais seulement

Foraging is a perennially aspirational hobby for gardeners and cooks alike, but it's now entering the mainstream. From supermarkets stocking wild garlic to drink manufacturers spiking their tonics with elderflower, wild food is everywhere. But location has often hampered the accessibility of foraging. If you don't live near a wood, riverbed or meadow, it can be difficult to find those sought-after ingredients listed in recipes.

This beginners' guide to growing wild food in pots makes foraging easy, detailing 30 edible plants that can be grown at home in containers with as much effort as you'd put into tending your supermarket herb pot, plus simple recipes for how to use them, like pink clover lemonade, water mint pesto and dandelion salad. It demonstrates how eating fresh food isn’t necessarily dictated by geographic region.
