The Edible City: A Year of Wild Food

A beautifully illustrated guide to making use of the wild ingredients that surround us in the city. As we walk through the city with our headphones in or eyes glued to screens it's easy to forget that we are surrounded by wonderful produce. Our parks, canals, gardens, and wild spaces are crammed full of delicious, nutrient rich plants; all we need to know is how to find them. In The Edible City, Urban Forager John Rensten gives us the tools to identify, find, and cook delicious food from the bounty that surrounds us. This account of a year of urban foraging is perfect for the armchair naturalist, or home cook looking for exciting new ingredients.

John Rensten has worked as a photographer and run a restaurant. He runs foraging walks throughout the year through his company Forage London.
