About this book

From garden herbs and flowers to foraged fruits and berries, plants have the power to nourish and heal. Used in home remedies and by professional herbalists for thousands of years, nature's medicine chest offers incredible healing benefits for body, mind, and spirit.

Grown in pots outside 19th-century apothecaries, the apothecary rose has been used to treat skin conditions and indigestion

Rosemary is known for its culinary uses, but it is also an incredible antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-fungal

Some Native American peoples used Evening Primrose to treat wounds, and today it is used in acne treatments and pain suppression
