About Plants
Just twenty plants provide the majority of food eaten, yet there are thousands of other
useful plants which have not reached mainstream attention. You can find details
of many of them here.
Plant Database
You can search our database of 7300 edible medicinal and useful plants.
If you want to use the database at home without using the internet then
you can download a copy or get it on CD-ROM for a small donation to the project.
