Acorn Foraging in the News
This weekend I stumbled on this newspaper article from the Belle Plaine Herald back in 2018, when I did a community presentation about foraging with acorns in a nearby town.

| I'm so confused why this is listed by the publisher as a new book by Robert McCloskey, considering he died in 2003. It does sound good so I'm putting it on my TBR list, but I wish they'd be more transparent about the real writer. I thought it might b ...more | |

| To be honest, this book really annoyed me. I went in expecting to get a lot out of it but it seemed like truly basic advice about reframing your thinking. It starts with the author going into a long story about a terrible and terrifying time she went ...more | |

| This is a big, beautiful book that’s filled with history and photos. I had hoped for more photo inspiration of regular people’s gardens but there’s a heavy focus on historical ones at monasteries and such. It’s very text heavy but it’s well written, ...more | |

| Pretty photos, nice layout and good info on bird species and such. That said, there’s little focus on native plants in the general recommendations, no bloom times listed, it doesn’t mention when plants are poisonous to humans or pets, sometimes recom ...more | |

of
The Ultimate Wildlife Habitat Garden: Attract and Support Birds, Bees, and Butterflies:
"I really appreciated the beginner-friendly layout of this book. I do wish each plant description had about 25% more information, though - bloom periods weren’t listed, for one.
Sometimes I questioned the accuracy of some of the descriptions. For exam" Read more of this review » |

| I liked the basic formula given at the start but most of the recipes themselves did not appeal to me. Most had very little protein (under 3 grams per ball, sometimes as little as half a gram) despite being fairly high in calories. They are called hig ...more | |

“There isn't a single plant on earth that doesn't carry within it the ability to heal something. For example, the bark from the cinchona tree heals malaria, turkey tail mushrooms (Coriolus versicolor) can shrink tumors, and even those little yellow dandelions that shoot up in every nook and cranny of your lawn can cool down a fever and help detoxify the blood.”
