Wild Food Plants of Australia

$34.99

Australian Nature Fieldguide: Wild Food Plants of Australia is the fieldguide edition of Wild Food Plants of Australia. It is presented in a concise, convenient form to facilitate quick and ready reference in the field.

Tim Low has provided a truly reliable guide to our edible flora, making identification easy, thus it is a perfect companion for bushwalkers, naturalists, scientists and, with emphasis on wild food cuisine, gourmets. Low describes more than 180 plants - from the most tasty and significant plant foods of southern and eastern Australia to the more important and spectacular inland and tropical foods. Distribution maps are provided with each description plus notes on how these plants were used in the past and can be used today. Beautifully illustrated with colour photographs and line drawings there is also a guide to poisonous and non-poisonous plants, and information on introduced food plants, the nutrients found in wild food plants, on bush survival, and how to forage for and cook with wild plants.

Pre order

It's pretty exciting when we have new stuff on the way and products confirmed they are coming back in stock. We like to make sure you don't miss out on what you want! Pre order means you place the order now, for delivery in a little while. The product will say 'pre order' in the description + also the expected dispatch date. We update these regularly so you'll know when to expect it. Please note, that if you order a pre-order item and other items in the same order, everything is sent at the one time. If you are wanting certain products sent earlier than the pre-order item please make separate orders. 

Heat Policy For Chocolate

Kakadu Plum Co. does not cover or accept any responsibility for heat damage as a result from freight. We suggest you order and pay for Express Post shipping if ordering during conditions of 28c or higher. We take special care in packaging chocolate during hot conditions, but unless selected, we ship via Standard Parcel Post.
