The Hedgerow Handbook cover

Beautifully illustrated in full-colour throughout, this is the perfect guide to British hedgerows and their plants - and what to do with them.

If there's one distinctive feature of the British countryside, it has to be the hedgerow. Hedgerows can provide a great fund of fresh, wild food for us. In this book, the author reintroduces the wild and natural hedgerow ingredients that our grandmothers used on a regular basis - but gives them a fresh and contemporary twist.

A celebration of nature’s bounty - beautifully illustrated and timeless.

Marking its tenth anniversary, this new edition of Adele Nozedar’s beloved guide invites readers to rediscover the plants, flowers and berries thriving in British hedgerows. With exquisite full-colour illustrations, folklore, and imaginative recipes.

The Hedgerow Handbook blends traditional knowledge with contemporary foraging tips. Featuring a foreword by Sunday Times bestselling author Tom Cox, it’s a charming, practical companion for anyone seeking seasonal living, wild cookery and botanical wonder.
