Louisiana Herb Journal: healing on home ground
In a world of constant change and crisis, the relationship between humans and their environment has never been more vital. A celebration of the state and the cultures of those who live there, Louisiana Herb Journal reflects on the value of medicinal herbs in promoting personal healing and addressing current challenges to the state’s environmental and economic stability. Focusing on herbs found in Louisiana, the book includes details on identification, habitat, distribution, healing properties, traditional uses and popular preparation methods. Readers will gain a deeper recognition of the natural wealth Louisiana enjoys and the ways that our stewardship of wild plants can impact personal health as well as the state’s ecological future.
