Southern California Food Plants: Wild Edibles of the Valleys, Foothills, Coast, and Beyond - 1845

Southern California Food Plants has been folded into Wild Edible Plants of California (Volume 1), a broader publication. Designed as a primer to the wild edible plant life of southern parts of the state, Southern California Food Plants best fits readers with a desire for a CliffNotes-style booklet (52 pages). In other words, SCFP is a publication for the cargo pocket, backpack, glovebox, or bug-out-bag. Each profile is accompanied by 1-2 color photos, common and scientific names, and sections describing the plant's range and habitat, edible use and preparation, and medicinal use and cautions (if applicable). Readers will also find each plant's sustenance rating (low, medium, or high) and county-by-county California location image (one for every profile) unique additions that separate it from other similarly-titled publications.
