Winner of the John Avery Award at the André Simon Awards 2022, "The Wilderness Cure" is a remarkable and transformative book that has profoundly impacted my perspective on the world. Authored by Dan Saladino, this special and enchanting masterpiece shines with inspiration and joy from every page. It is a revelation of delight for the general reader, who discovers a new world of culinary wonders when exploring the realm of wild food.

John Wright, the author of the renowned River Cottage handbooks, praises "The Wilderness Cure" as a captivating and lyrical journey into our ancestral past, focusing on the what and how we eat. Mo Wilde, the author, makes a bold and radical pledge to live solely off free, foraged food for an entire year. In a world that has become disconnected from its roots, eating wild food becomes a culinary and healing experience, as well as a social and political act. Ultimately, it is an expression of love and community.

Through her extensive knowledge of botany and mycology, Mo guides us on a journey through the seasons, uncovering nutritious food from hundreds of plant, fungal, and seaweed species. She not only learns how to survive but also how to thrive, nourishing both her body and mind in the process. Deepening her connection with the earth, she reconnects with a sense of belonging that we have lost but deeply desire.

"The Wilderness Cure" is more than just a cookbook; it is a diary of a wild experiment that explores a deeper relationship between humans and nature. It serves as a timely and inspiring memoir that reminds us of the valuable lessons from our past. By delving into the complexities and simplicity of our natural network, this book offers a profound perspective on our place in the world.

In conclusion, "The Wilderness Cure" is a must-read for anyone who seeks to explore the world of wild food, reconnect with nature, and discover the importance of living in harmony with our surroundings. It is a testament to the power of food, knowledge, and community, and a reminder that we can thrive by embracing the wildness within ourselves.
