- Nina Sengupta presents her beautiful coloring bookbook, Edible Weeds and naturally growing plants, which is a gateway for Adults and Children to rediscover their intimate relationship with Mother Nature both in their diets and in life in general.
This book is so important for learning about plants in our bio region, it should be in schools across India.
This is a way we can change the narative of local food within the context of education.
If every child had this book we could have classes about local edible weeds with science, art, cooking even economics!
We are trying to raise the funds to print the next edition PLEASE HELP ...there are 22 copies left, if you want one contact :

This book is my companion since many years- beautifully made and so very helpful for all of us to become more aware if our surrounding free foods
so beautiful how from Solitude to you from Nina to me and you to the cafe...flowing in circles we all learn from each other! :(
Sarah, you mentioning that the book is your companion is what triggered interest within Auroville that lead to the weed walks :)
can you give me a link that I want to buy?
Thanks for sharing the knowledge. It will help a lot if the plant names are subtitled. Couldn't hear parts of the conversation because of the cameraman's sniffing and trampling on the dry leaves.
Hi dear McKenzie, my name is Shambo. Of late, I have been following you. Your videos are eye opener for many of us. Keep your good work going.🙂👍👍
Thanks, but i only wished the camera was on the herb while the narrative is on
Along with the above video... I went back to my five year of BSc. & MSc... In Taxonomic class... Thank you Edible weeds... I want that book... Edible weeds
Amazing video. Great information. Too good. We have food growing every where. The question of whether we have food scarcity anywhere in the world is absolutely wrong, unless you want to eat only A type of food
absolutely right! :)
Thank you Edible Weeds.....
Nice info and the video.. brother take care of that cold.. probably you can use some plants for the relief..
What a wealth of information! I just bought the book!
Two of my fav people in the food growing and eating spectrum! Nina and Krishna..Thank you for doing what you do! Love you guys!
This video is fantastic! So informative. I would love to have a copy of your book Nina. Thanks Krishna Mckenzie for making this video!
Thankyou so much Renu. We will soon launch a channel for regular virtual weedwalk
Very informative video..i have also good knledge about my jharkhandi native edible weeds
Much needed video. Really appreciate if you could do more video about what kind of sunlight requirement and also weather it’s a Bush or ground cover in those lines. Also I have a request, Can you post some videos how you grow your ladies finger/tomato/ potato plants. You were telling that sweet potato is a great ground cover, how do you harvest. I feel I might harm the roots of other plants existing there. Can you guide us through 😊
Asystasia Gangetica is commonly called Chinese violet I believe. I found it growing in my garden but haven’t tried eating it yet. My fear is do these weeds have look alikes that are poisonous? How can we be sure we have the right plant? Currently we eat Centella Asiatica . We have 2 varieties growing in our garden which I have no problems identifying.
Commelina Diffusa, a related plant, grows heavily in rainy years, and the seeds are like a tiny nut that the mice like to eat. In rainy years the cats are very busy catching lots of mice.
Krishna do you have a patreon so we can donate money so you can get better audio equipment?
OK ji. It's very useful.
Lovely video
Great video
Also one more request to add on is , How to grow the squash? Can I Make it climb a fruit tree or should it’s best to use as a ground cover ? Thank you so much
Niana,many thanks,very interesting,i will meet you,from bangladesh.🍒🍋🍐🍌🥕🍆🥭
🙏
Eye opener.
Very good and valuable ideas and vision, you, Mr Mckenzie, have. I always appreciate your ideas. Thank you, Sorry, I don't get the name of the Mother (Meena?) in this video, she also has invaluable knowledge and I wish I got those books.

Oww. 🥰
Thank you so much for this video Krishna. I have to visit Auroville and meet you atleast once. Also how can I avail this book?
Very informative 👏👏👏
Glad you think so!
Do you know about the plants of foothills of Himalaya?😀
Can we smoke this weed sir?
Krishna is sneezing and all I can think about is CORONA
Is it possible to purchase all 3 volumes and ship to Kerala? Or ebook download?
Great content. native indians have known these plants for thousands of years. But with non organic farming we have forgetten about using them.
What is the difference between ponnaganni And alligator weed .
Google that one!:)🙏❤
Is the cameraman actually sniffling throughout the video?
no it is me so sorry i had an allergy :(
🙏❤️
10 leaf indian origano jucice with honey . 2 spoun juice good for allergic coufgh and nose blockage 🙏💐
Please pluck one plant and focus it against a non green background showing the veins and shape with local and biological name so that one can easily identify it.
Cost of this book pls?
