Survival Training School of California

Ever want to learn to live off the land? Then this video is for you. In this video we take you step by step through the identification and processing of dozens of the world's most common and useful plants. This footage was shot over 6 months on high quality cameras in a variety of ecosystems, and is not only crystal clear- but striking and beautiful. Of course, this dvd is not just about identification, it's about uses. Therefore we take you step by step through rarely seen skills like; making string and rope from plant fibers, making acorns into food (the Native American way), processing wild grains into baking flour, producing soap from plants, how to dry medicinal herbs, how to brew medicinal teas, how to prepare a medicinal poultice, and so much more... all in the field, with minimal utensils... we've even included recipes for wild rose hip jam, and cream of watercress soup. You will be amazed. This video will soon be a staple in every plant library!
