The Herbal Medicine-Maker's Handbook
Peterson Field Guide to Medicinal Plants and Herbs

Perfect for you if...

You're interested in herbalism and want practical recipes you can make today with plants you already have or can easily find.
You enjoy cooking with whole ingredients and making your own remedies rather than buying commercial versions.
You're curious about the folklore and spirit of plants, not just their medicinal properties.

Maybe not for you if...

You want clinical, scientifically-proven medical treatments and distrust traditional herbal approaches.
You live in an urban flat with no access to wild plants or a garden to forage from.
You prefer stripped-down reference books without the philosophical or spiritual aspects mixed in.

About this book

Wild plants and herbs grow in unexpected places—along roadsides, near windows, and through garden structures. In this herbalism guidebook, Doreen Shababy draws on a lifetime of experience working with plants in forests, fields, and kitchens to share herbal knowledge and practical instruction. The book contains dozens of recipes and natural remedies, including Glorious Garlic and Artichoke Dip, Sunny Oatmeal Crepes, Candied Catnip Leaves, Lavender Lemonade, Roseberry Tea, Garlic Tonic, Parsnip Hair Conditioner, and Dream Charms made with Mugwort. Topics covered include the differences between various flowers, assembling a well-stocked herbal pantry, the role of gratitude in herbalism, plant-spirit communication basics, using local wild herbs, and methods for making poultices, teas, tinctures, balms, and extracts. The book also includes herbal lore and legend throughout.
