I have been growing herbs for more than 20 years and this book reflects the knowledge I have gained over that time and the share not only in The Essential Herbal magazine, but also in lectures and programs given to garden groups, libraries and botanic gardens and arboretums.

 Our first issue was INFUSION and it is also available in this listing.
