Introduction

For Eloise, Ebony, Emile and Ruby

As a child I was encouraged by my Parents Phil and Elsie and my Grandparents Sally and Eddie to gather and prepare all that could be enjoyed from the wild

The purpose of this book is twofold: firstly I want to illustrate the incredible diversity of foods that can be discovered in nature, and secondly, I want to inspire and encourage innovation in cooking and preparing these delicacies once they have been located.
