Living Wild

Gardening, Cooking and Healing with Native Plants of the Sierra Nevada

We already love the Sierra for its towering summits, flowing waters, and deep green forests. With LIVING WILD, we can also enjoy our local mountains as a storehouse of native wisdom, wild recipes and backyard medicines.

Tom Mooers, Executive Director, Sierra Watch

Just strolling through the woods or your backyard becomes a culinary and artistic adventure, providing food, art and medicine for family and friends.

Elizabeth Martin, Chief Executive Officer, The Sierra Fund

Learning how to responsibly use wild plants deepens my understanding of how I depend on nature, encouraging me to become a better steward to the systems that give me breath.

John Muir Laws, The Laws Field Guide to the Sierra Nevada
