Omschrijving

As winter turns to spring, a froth of white appears on the hawthorn, giving it its old name the May tree. This abundance of tiny white flowers heralds the coming of warmer months, and that let's the world know that spring has finally sprung! As the year progresses, this tenacious tree gives shelter to birds and insects, and small creatures seeking shelter in its thorny tangled branches. As the seasons turn, the vibrant red berries that decorate the tree come fall are a source of nourishment for the wildlife that has made the hawthorn its home.

Steeped in myth, the hawthorn is a magical tree, hidden in plain sight all around us. Legend has it that it is bad luck to cut down a hawthorn tree, and their robust branches, plentiful fruits, and solid wood have made them a favourite of foragers, and famers!

In The Little Wild Library: Hawthorn, discover how to make the most of this ancient and useful tree, with beginner- friendly recipes and makes to try throughout the year. Once you've found your favourite hawthorn, come back as the seasons change and find new things to do with your foraged treasure - from edible treats to useful tinctures.

Learn how to identify the hawthorn amidst its hedgerow friends from the comprehensive botanical information included, and take this pocket-sized book out on foraging adventures to help spot the hawthorn blossom bursting forth in the spring sunshine, or shiny brightly and lifting spirits on a dull fall afternoon. Through the book, learn about the history of the hawthorn, including how some famous hawthorn trees have changed the best laid plans of modern life, and discover some of the myths, legends, and folklore attached to this beautiful plant.

The perfect beginner's guide to foraging, in a handy pocket-sized format, The Little Wild Library: Hawthorn will reveal the secrets of the hedgerow and inspire those new to foraging to experiment and explore the beautiful plants around them.
