As one of the participants, Gillian discovered that the experience was much more than a foraging challenge. It offered a fascinating glimpse into living history — and prompted reflections on some of the challenges we face today.From April to June 2025 more than a hundred foragers took part in the Wildbiome Project, during which time they ate only wild or foraged food for a period of one or three months. Gillian Edom was one of the participants in this project and this is an account of some of her experiences. This involvement in a genuine living history experiment also provoked many reflections on how it might have a bearing on some of the tricky issues we face in the world as it is today.

Buying the book:

The price of the book is £12.99 plus P&P*

This saves you £4 on the recommended retail price.

One copy of a book will be sent by printed paper rate. If you buy two books, this has to be sent by parcel rate, which is much more expensive. I am very happy to send more than one book separately to keep the cost down.
