Books a Good Vancouver Islander Needs:

Plants Of The Pacific Northwest Coast: Washington, Oregon, British Columbia & Alaska

Great full-color field guide. Tells you what is edible, and also aboriginal plant uses.

There are tons of edible berries and plants on the island, this book is worth getting.

National Audubon Society Field Guide to North American Mushrooms -

We are fortunate enough to have a variety of mushrooms that are edible on Vancouver Island.

Picking chanterelles, pines, and 'chicken of the woods' is a fun and delicious fall activity on the island.

Frommer's Vancouver Island, the Gulf Islands & the San Juan Islands

Perfect guide so you know where you are, and what you can see on the island.

Geared towards tourists... but islanders will find it useful and informative, as well.

That's all for now. When time permits, I will update this with more resources for Vancouver Island residents.
