This small booklet is the pilot version of a longer book which will be published for use in schools throughout the Kamchatka Peninsula. Using the example of the dwarf Siberian pine, one of three species of pines with edible nuts found in Russia, the book seeks input from readers on the content and design of the future publication on wild harvested plants and their uses. Considered a tool in the preservation of traditional knowledge of the indigenous peoples of Kamchatka and Koriakia, it strives to raise the awareness of, and interest in, wild plants and sustainable ways of life among the younger generation of Aboriginal peoples.
