Guest guest Posted January 5, 2005 Report Share Posted January 5, 2005 Anyone have any suggestions for what herbs they'd like to see covered (and add to the coverage of) for the herb of the week series 2005? We'll be starting this back up next week ... *Smile* Chris (list mom) http://www.alittleolfactory.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 6, 2005 Report Share Posted January 6, 2005 Are exotics allowed, or does it have to be something we can grow? Ien in the Kootenays ******************************* Stop.

Guest guest Posted January 6, 2005 Report Share Posted January 6, 2005 Hi Ien, We can cover exotic stuff ... pretty much the goal is to over time learn as much as we can about as many herbs as we can and we'll do it together a week at a time. *Smile* Chris (list mom) http://www.alittleolfactory.com Ien Van Houten [ienvan] Are exotics allowed, or does it have to be something we can grow?

Guest guest Posted January 6, 2005 Report Share Posted January 6, 2005 Thanks, must have missed that one :-( .... did a message search so I could go back to it... message 23012 is the intro. I'm thinking that it may be neat to have a series of discussions on qualities of herbs..... just to see if there's a correlation between what the herbs do and what they are used for, for instance, comfrey and slippery elm are both muscilinous (sp?) and treat inflamation and from what I've read, joint health ..... what other muscilinous (sp?) herbs are there out there, and uses for them?

Guest guest Posted January 7, 2005 Report Share Posted January 7, 2005 Hi Ien, We can cover exotic stuff ... pretty much the goal is to over time learn as much as we can about as many herbs as we can and we'll do it together a week at a time. *Smile* Chris (list mom) http://www.alittleolfactory.com Great! I love messing about with temperate herbs and learning more about them. And (It's and, not but)I have a business with exotics, that is helping to save chunks of Rainforest in partnership with indigenous Amazonians. I just compiled something for my business partners on Sangre de Drago. I'll fix it up so it is more suitable for this list. and I'll send it to you for editing and approval!
