The Hedgerow Handbook: Recipes, Remedies and Rituals – THE NEW 10TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION

If there's one distinctive feature of the British countryside, it has to be the hedgerow. Hedgerows can provide a great fund of fresh, wild food for us. In this book, the author reintroduces the wild and natural hedgerow ingredients that our grandmothers used on a regular basis - but gives them a fresh and contemporary twist.
