...an essential book for every self-reliant homestead. No doubt the pages will become smudged and tattered from frequent use in the coming years. --- Deborah Niemann, author of Homegrown and Handmade, Ecothrifty, and Raising Goats Naturally
Heal Local teaches a wide range of skills, from the backyard herb garden to twenty basic, safe, widely used herbs, to specific conditions which can be treated at home. ---Matthew Wood MS (Herbal Medicine), Registered Herbalist (AHG)
Imagine if you could step into your backyard or onto your balcony to pick what you needed for any minor health emergency. Homestead herbalist Dawn Combs shows how, using Heal Local' s small apothecary model, "100-mile healthcare" can be within your reach.
By harnessing the multifaceted properties of whole plants, you can rely on homegrown or regionally produced herbs rather than importing exotics and non-natives. This innovative guide demonstrates how to:
- Maximize the benefits of homegrown first aid, from increased freshness, potency and effectiveness, to community resilience and local economic growth
- Make home herbal healthcare less intimidating and more attainable, focusing on 20 herbs to effectively treat most common injuries and ailments
- Implement a local medicine culture safely and sustainably, while protecting and respecting wild plant populations.
Many herbals overwhelm their readers, presenting a list of hundreds of herbs, each with a different purpose. Heal Local empowers readers by showing that you don't need to know everything about every herb on the planet to create a complete home apothecary. Anyone can be self-sufficient with their wellness, regardless of their previous knowledge, experience or available space.
...a practical and accessible doorway to the amazing and delicious world of herbal medicine. Yes, let's add wellness and healing to the rising tide of re-localization! --- Betzy Bancroft, RH(AHG), co-director of the Vermont Center for Integrative Herbalism, advisory board member of United Plant Savers
Dawn Combs is a homestead herbalist with over 20 years' experience, and the author of Conceiving Healthy Babies. As well as training others in herbal home healthcare, she treats her family's common illnesses and minor injuries with natural therapies, herbal remedies, and appropriate foods.
