A text written for everyone who likes to harvest and process their own herbs from the wild or from their gardens.

This volume includes comprehensive instructions for making herbal tinctures, oils, salves, vinegars, teas, and syrups.

Finnish herbalist Henriette Kress focuses on herbs that are easy to grow or find in northern Europe--stressing teas over tinctures, as local tradition dictates.

Practical Herbs 1 is fully illustrated with colour photographs.
