Description
This compact field guide is one of the best books out there for anyone interested in Australia’s edible wild plants. Written by Tim Low, Wild Food Plants of Australia makes it easy to identify, understand, and safely use more than 180 native species — from southern bush tucker staples to tropical fruits and inland foods.
Each plant entry includes clear photos, line drawings, and distribution maps, along with notes on how the plants were traditionally used and how they can be used today. There’s also a handy section on poisonous species, introduced edibles, bush survival, and cooking with wild plants.
It’s a perfect companion for bushwalkers, gardeners, foragers, or anyone who wants to know more about the wild food growing all around us.
