Description Recently, the theme of regional cuisine and healing is again relevant, especially in the context of local foods and self-sufficiency. Securing food from local sources is less harmful to the environment compared to the global food industry. The sources of local food are traditionally related to regional cuisine and medicine. In this context, the article deals with wild medicinal plants and wild edible plants. The author works with historically documented sources that map the occurrence of wild plants on the Czech territory; on this basis she outlines relationships between man and his environment. These relationships are manifested in the knowledge of plants and ways they are used. Interest in wild plants is revitalised today thanks to environmental accents and the need to care for the landscape.
