A great way to remember this is through stories, so learn the stories related to the plants, 'cause that will remind you of the features.

Wild food foraging - Ep 2

The best to forage is your own garden, as there is where you know what is growing and how it is managed.

Following from that you explore your neighbourhood where you will spot trees with overhanging fruits. Learn patterns and start mapping. There are food and medicine everywhere.
