There are four categories – berries and fruits, nuts and seeds, plants and herbs, and mushrooms and fungi. Along with that, there is a rating out of 100 for how edible it is, how findable it is, how recognisable it is, and how seasonal it is. It has the name of the plant, i.e cranberry, and then a brief description of it. It also can be played as top-trumps cards with the focus on wild treasures.Įach card has an image of a plant on it (along with a suit and number). The Foragers Playing Card set is a number of things in one – it’s a deck of regular playing cards with the regular diamonds, hearts, spades and aces in one corner. I’m not complaining – you know how I feel about getting especially the kids outdoors! I came across these Foragers Playing Cards and I thought it would make a really nice gift for the novice forager. This year has seen a huge rise in foragers, and as a member of numerous foraging and mushrooming groups, I’ve seen membership increase in unprecedented numbers.
