So these aren't the best things, but I hope it will help someone. It is specific to the midwest in the US, but I've noticed that some trees and plants can be found both here and in the UK, so hopefully some may still find this useful. At the very least, maybe it'll be interesting.
I've got this picture album online of plants in my area that I've identified. I try to put in the descriptions of the pictures any medicinal or food use they might have.
This probably isn't perfect or very complete, but it's helped me learn a lot and I hope it helps someone else out there too.
I should note that it isn't really organized in any scientific way - but I did try to put similar-looking plants close together, as I think that's more useful when trying to ID things.
Here's the album of plants.
Also, I made a few videos about identifying Ohio trees in the winter. I think it can be pretty useful to know what tree is what without having to check the leaves or anything like that.
Here they are: [video=youtube;GMDXoykOvAM]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GMDXoykOvAM[/video] and Part 2 is here

Lack of time is my excuse...
