Incorporating medicinal herbs in your garden provides homegrown empowerment over your health. If you don't already grow herbs, I believe they can add another layer of diversity and sustainability to your existing space by simply tucking them in between your vegetables or in pots if you are worried about spreading. A smart way to get started would be to consider the ways herbs can most enhance your life. Are boo boos a daily occurence in your household? Turn to skin loving plants. Looking to promote wellness for Fall and Winter? Turn to antimicrobial plants. Looking for calming herbal support in these turbulent times? Turn to nervines and adaptogens.
