RECONNECT. RESTORE. RECIPROCATE.
REPAIRING LANDSCAPES AND RECONNECTING US TO LOCAL WILD PLANT COMMUNITIES.
A brilliant approach to ecological restoration simultaneous with food production! - MARK SHEPARD, author, Restoration Agriculture
An uncommonly thorough reference book, a primer on plant ecology, restoration biology, and the medicinal and edible properties of Mid-Atlantic plants.... Much more than that, it is thought-provoking, aspirational and the first chapter alone is worth the price of the book. - DOUG TALLAMY, author, Bringing Nature Home
INTEGRATING RESTORATION PRACTICES, foraging, herbalism, rewilding, and permaculture, Wild Plant Culture is a comprehensive guide to the ecological restoration of native edible and medicinal plant communities in eastern North America.
Blending science, practice, and traditional knowledge to repair both degraded landscapes and our broken cultural relationship with nature, coverage includes:
- Mutually beneficial human-plant connections
- Observing the land's existing and potential plant communities
- Site preparation, seeding, planting, and maintaining restored areas
- Compelling stories of wild plant communities and restoration projects
- Detailed profiles of over 200 native plants and their edible and medicinal uses.
Both a practical guide and an evocative read that will transport you deep into the natural land- scape, Wild Plant Culture is an essential toolkit for gardeners, farmers, and ecological restoration practitioners, highlighting the important role humans play in tending and mending native plant communities.
This guidebook holds one of many pathways to healing the ecological wounds of colonialism. - SAM THAYER, author, The Forager's Harvest
A cornucopia of useful information, from soils and land use history to plant inventories and their invaluable uses, and the tools to help you learn more. - KELLY KINDSCHER, ethnobotanist, University of Kansas, author, Medicinal Wild Plants of the Prairie
