Language of Plants: an introduction to the language that plants “speak” to us through their color, aroma, taste, habitat, constituents, life history, etc.
Conscientious wildcrafting: understanding natural law and the “honor code” of harvesting, also includes information about herb gathering and the lunar calendar.
