Edible Wild Plants - A North American Field Guide by Elias&Dykeman

Just in the last year or so we became more interested in what there is for wild plants here in Maine. Mostly up at my parents house because we are here in the city. Interesting none the less and actually there are some things I want to try this year if we have time and can find them. Last years fun discovery was that of ramps, or wild leeks. You pick them in the spring for the shoots, which are extremely flavorful for there tiny size and can wait for fall to harvest the bulbs. We will be searching for these scrumptious little things again this year. Fiddleheads will probably up sooner than usual due to the crazy warm weather and this year I want to go picking them before we get too many black flies.
 To help with looking for new edible plants we picked up a seemingly decent book, I like the fact they show many of the plants in varied stages and seasons (so if you see something in fall you could still identify that you should get it in the spring). I have an image of a cover from amazon, same title and authors, but not the version I have. I really like the concise directions of what part of the plant is edible and how to eat it best. Neat stuff. I would like more foraging type books, and also a large parcel of rural land to forage on. For now we will visit my parents.
