bailed1/5⭐ It was an okay first-step introduction to everything from growing to harvesting to storing and using different herbs until I got to the part where the authors recommend sticking garlic up your vagina to treat a yeast infection (and leaving it there overnight for 2-3 nights in a row, no less).
Day 15
Picked this introduction to basic medicinal uses of herbs at an indie book shop. The author talks about personal memories & connects some folklore to specific herbs. It‘s more personal than informative. Great read for a newcomer looking to get into herbalism.

Happy #bookmail for my birthday! I'm also reading my way through Alys Fowler's backlist. First up: The Thrifty Forager. I've already tried dandelion greens from our yard; a bit bitter, but honestly not as bad as I expected! (I'm also watching Fowler's Edible Garden series. I'm obsessed!) #currentlyreading
