Why I'd hand it to you
Nicole Apelian, an herbalist and wilderness skills teacher, pulls together a large collection of home remedies made from plants, herbs and pantry staples, with step-by-step instructions and photos. It covers teas, tinctures, salves, syrups and more, and it may well get you started on a kitchen herb garden. It suits families who like to be self-reliant. Depth varies from remedy to remedy, though; some entries are thorough while others are brief, so you may want a second source on the plants you use most. For foraged ingredients, be completely sure of the plant before you harvest it.
