	A WOMAN'S BOOK OF HERBS 'Herbs are the legacy left to us by our wise foremothers. Even within the most polluted city, plants flourish, growing by the sides of roads, peeking out from brickwork or tarmac. Plants give life to the dead highways and byways of our land, they open our hearts and make our spirits soar. In times of grief, the sight of a bud bursting into life can give hope of happier times. They are our wise companions on the planet and they have much to tease us.' reed more >>
