Dining On The Wilds
with Miriam Darnall-Kramer & John Goude
The quality of primitive skills and edible plants videos varies widely.
Some videos have really good information, but they would almost kill you
with boredom. Other videos are fun to watch, but not terribly
informative. The challenge is to make a video that both educational and
captivating to watch. The Dining On The Wilds videos have mostly
good informative content, but not a very exciting presentation of it.
Personally, I would prefer to read it from a book. However, if you are a
person who learns better from the video format, then these tapes are for
you.
The Dining On The Wilds videos includes six tapes covering more than 300
species of plants. Although there is a definite slant towards southern
California plants, Kramer and Goude do a nice job of representing the
most important edible plants all across North America. Also included is
the 167 page Dining On The Wilds Reference Manual by Miriam
Kramer. One of the greatest assets to these videos is the demonstrations
of skills like threshing grain, acorn processing, primitive cooking,
harvesting prickly pear cactus, and harvesting cattails. I recommend
using these videos with
Botany in a Day.
Look up the names from the video in the index of Botany in a Day
to learn the essential family information.
