Ever wondered about the benefits of dandelion, chickweed, and elder? Healing Herbs is an essential reference for the beginning herbalist, featuring 20 common herbs, many of which are considered weeds, that can often be found in hedgerows, meadows, and wild places.

Along with medicinal information, this book includes traditional folklore and fortifying recipes for each edible or medicinal plant, and plenty of easy-to-follow instructions to help fill a backyard herbalist’s medicine chest with remedies to keep the whole family happy and healthy.

Healing Herbs is conveniently organized by plant, making it easier for the home herbalist to find, identify, and use healing plants from the backyard. Herbalist Tina Sams identifies the twenty most common and healthful herbs and over one hundred natural remedies that are easy, inexpensive, and effective. This illustrated guide is fundamental for any nature-lover’s library

“The Healing Power of Herbs is a lovely, insightful introduction into the wonderful world of herbs and herbal healing. One finds all of the essential information and more including intelligent discussions on herb safety, herb gardening, herbal preparation, and remedies for common ailments. The author’s message is to reinforce the realization that while powerful, herbs are all around us and they are our allies in health.” —Rosemary Gladstar, herbalist author of Rosemary Gladstar’s Medicinal Herbs
