How to Use this Guide
The contents have been divided into three categories (Leafy Vegetables, Root Vegetables, Fruit Berries). The plants in each category have been arranged according to seasonal availability. There are two pages per plant. The 1st displays the plant in its natural growing environment and lists information such as its scientific name, growing habitat, as well as when and what parts to use. The 2nd notes basic info such as history, preparation, and nutritional value. It also displays specific edible parts as well as identifiable features. Plants with a common poisonous look-alike will be referenced in the back of the guide.
