Wild Fruits, Berries, Nuts & Flowers

101 Good Recipes for Using Them

B. James

First published in 1942 (and retailing at 1s 6d) in response to the growing use of factory-made foods and essences, Wild Berries, Fruits, Nuts & Flowers demonstrated how tasty dishes could be made using the wild fruits and flowers of the countryside.

Today there is a growing interest in foraging. People have become more connected with nature and are heading into the countryside and collecting edible plants, mushrooms and fruits. This is combined with an increasing desire to eat local seasonal produce in the interests of sustainability.

She writes articles, books (most recent is Secret Gardens of East Anglia, Frances Lincoln, 2017) and blogs about gardens, grow your own and herbs (www.thegardenpost.com). She edits The Horticulturist and is a member of the Garden Media Guild and the Guild of Food Writers.
