I can suggest a good book instead - Roger Phillips mushrooms I think is by far the best mushroom identification book out there. The best book for wild food is food for free by Richard Mabey.

Er websites well cab who is a member here also writes for downsizer and has written some articles on there about wild foodwhich are well worth a look.

Keep checking out here too as we will eventualy have a bit more to offer on wild food.

WOW! That is a very comprehensive list Hedgehogpie I will be trawling through those asap

[Hedgehogpie]

I confess it's only a fraction of my bookmarks (ho hum. ) , but they're the ones most useful for foraging!

Hope you find them helpful. I have a 'useful' booklist knocking about somewhere too.....
