The Four Seasons of the Native Gatherer

From spring to winter, picking wild plants means learning about them, getting closer to nature and enriching your daily life with healthy, local and tasty products.

Often considered "weeds," they are actually precious, interesting… and useful! One by one, Isabelle tells us about them, presenting the characteristics that allow us to identify them, their history, and their benefits. She explains how to harvest them respectfully and gives, for each one, different suggestions for use, with one or more recipes.

Originally from the Lower St. Lawrence region, Isabelle Simard inherited ancestral traditions and developed a passion for the plants around her from a young age. Discovering that not everyone was as fortunate as she was, she shares her knowledge and expertise with disarming simplicity. This book, inspired by her outings throughout the seasons, brings together some sixty plants that grow wild across Quebec.
