Where to begin learning herb usage from.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
Easy to follow, this book is a good place to start learning about growing and using herbs. In addition to clear explanations on making tinctures, poultices, teas, baths, etc. there are recipes and suggestions for seasonal celebrations. The fact that it covers not only medicinal uses but also culinary and gift making makes it a valuable beginners book on the diverse uses of herbs. As a green witch, I liked the chance to learn about herbs commonly used in magick from a different perspective. It gave me ideas on how to use these gifts from the Earth in a way that still represents my beliefs yet allows me to share it them with others in different forms other than incense or potions.
Really interesting Info!!

Really a great reference. Has 40 herbs discussed - each entry gives facts and folklore, how to grow the herb and harvest it, how to use it, and a recipe or two. Then there is a section on making herbal remedies, soaps, bath salts. I also really like the section for the kitchen which has recipes for different herbal blends to use as seasonings. Beautiful writing as well throughout.

This book is a must have! It is a whimsical read jam packed with herbal know how. Shatoiya has a wonderful outlook on life and herbalism. She effortlessly blends humour, fabulous recipes, and knowledge into one little book. I just made the chocolate cake, and it is KILLER! I have tried a few of the lotion and salve recipes and was delighted that they not only turned out, but they were so easy to make. Thank you for this wonderful treasure! It is a keeper for my own natural healing library and will be an awesome gift for many of my friends this year!
A Must Have!

This is the best definitive book on herbs yet. Both novice and expert will find a wealth of information about the use of herbs. Having been a bookseller for many years, I have had the opportunity to view quite a few books on the subject of alternative healing and never have I found a more concise and useful book than Earth Mother Herbal. It is a good read too...full of wonderful wit, wisdom and stories.
