 Packed with colorful photographs from Holly’s teaching garden and wildcrafting forays, the videos and curriculum materials in this quick and easy course highlight the “inner-workings” of plants and explain what makes them so useful as people medicine. By focusing on a plant's actions, you will fully understand how to use an herb in a remedy or formula and you will feel comfortable knowing which body system it is most useful for. Is it sedative?
