Abstract From seashores and riverbanks to mountains, valleys, and overgrown fields, the beautiful Southeast is rich in wild edibles. Forager, farmer, teacher, and chef Chris Bennett helps you find the most delicious plants - from delectable wild greens, like the often-overlooked sweet, fan-shaped leaves of common mallow, to wild hazelnuts, hickory nuts, and fruity black walnuts. Whether you venture out on the water for cattail corndogs and wild rice or stay close to home for the candy-crunch of hackberry fruits, this is the guide for a wild and wondrous feast.--COVER.
