I am the author of The Wild & Weedy Apothecary, published by Llewellyn in 2010.  I am currently gathering more new & old recipes and remedies to follow up with a companion book. I have been a professional gardener off and on since 1978. I have lead many workshops over the years and am presently involved with hands-on energy work for self and others, as well as growing and using herbs from the garden and learning the ways of more unusual wild plants such as medicinal lichens and fungi.
