The Herbal How
To Guide
Teaches you the FUN of Working With Herbs.
You've most likely come to the Herbal
How To Guide because you
have some fresh herbs (either from your herb garden, a local farmer's
market, given by a friend or maybe even collected in the wild) and you
want
to learn how to play with them. Wonderful!
We're going to have a lot of
fun exploring the world of herbs together. It is my goal to
share the decades of learning that I've been privileged to receive -
right here on this website - for all to enjoy.

Susun Weed has been one of my heroines and a great focus for my own
herbal learning path. She has done me a great honor by
featuring a link to the Herbal How To Guide in her February eZine.

Before you
go into the website take a moment to

(The
RSS links are just above on the right.)
There's something wonderfully rewarding about
saying, "I
made that," when someone compliments on the quality of an herbal item
you've created.
However, the FUN begins when you actually start playing with the herbs
-
making your own teas,
essential
oils, natural
remedies, soaps,
natural
products, alternative medicines and other crafts. Everything
I present on this website is in simple
step-by-step fashion - to make it easy for you to
succeed. I wish I could share the heavenly scents, divine tastes and
luxurious feel - those you'll need to create for yourself. So grab your
favorite beverage and enjoy all the herbal information.
Before we begin making wonderful things I need to
address the proper drying
and storage
of your herb. When properly dried
and stored
most herbs have a very long shelf life of 1+ years. Naturally, you'll
want to use them when they are freshest - but sometimes long term
storage is a must. For example; if you are going to use peppermint herb
for tea, you most likely can't drink it all in a few days while the
herb is freshly picked. So learning
how to make sure it's perfectly dry and stored correctly will give you
many months of enjoyment.
Use
the navigation bar to the left (or the Table of Contents below) to
enter the site and start learning to play with herbs. The Herbal
How To Guide will continue to grow for a very long time
with lots of
wonderful herbal information, ideas, recipes, pictures, tips &
tricks and so
much
more.
Happy
Herbing!
MAKE it a Great Day!
