"The original, complete, engaging and easy-to-use herbal medicine making book!"
This is our flagship book, first published in the year 2000 and now in its 4th edition. Making Plant Medicine is a friendly, fun and easy to read book about making herbal tinctures, vinegar extracts, glycerites, teas, decoctions, succi, syrups, oils, salves, creams, poultices, compresses and soaks. Step-by-step recipes are given with instructions on how to make high quality and consistent products from your own home harvest, taking into account the properties of the various herbs, to make safe products for home health care. The "how-to" portion is followed by a formulary covering 143 herbs, from common to rare, that can be grown in temperate gardens. The monographs cover: nomenclature, parts used, formulas, practical uses, dosage, contraindications and a review of related species. The book is crammed with personal anecdotes and stories to bring the processes home. Expect reams of specific herbal information, augmented by an extensive glossary of terms, plant index and general index. In the words of the English Herbalist Mike Brook, "Making Plant Medicine has been to bed with me, what more can I say?"

Forest Roots
The most effective way to get forest roots going in woodland or shade garden is to plant them now! Rake back the mulch, dig a shallow hole, nestle the roots in with buds pointing up and rhizome horizontal to the ground, fill soil all around, pat it down, and replace the mulch over the top. Valuable plants like Goldenseal, Black Cohosh and Solomon's Seal may be marked with a sturdy stake and a plant label to assure that they are recognized, tended and appreciate when they emerge come spring. The old adage about perennial plants sometimes applies: "First year they sleep, second year they creep, third year they leap." But in actuality we often get flowers and fruits on our goldenseal the first year after transplant. Working with live roots in the fall assures success on a shoestring!

May you all plant diversity onto the landscape and sow seeds of food and medicine to feed body and soul of self, family and community. Whether you do it purposely or by chance, may you all plant trees that kiss the sky.
