Native Plants of Commercial Importance
Richard Allan Miller
Here is an information-filled look at how to supplement rural incomes by the harvest of native plants. There are many wild plants in N. America which have long been used in medicinal, cosmetic, food, and floral industries. Some of them are used in sufficient quantities to make them commercially important. This book describes these and other forest products, dividing N. America into five regions. Each region contains a description of 10 common crops now harvested, with detail and a special appendix on marketing. Reforestation is stressed to make each crop renewable and self-generating as a natural resource. This technique has led to the new concept of Forest Farming. The future of foraging as a source of supplementing one’s rural income lies with our ability to recognize natural resources.
