You're Welcome...but it's not my listing. I just discovered it and wanted to keep it handy myself. I have a long way to go learning about herbs and their many uses.
The link is in the article title...Back to Nature.

Enjoy -- and know that I have not read every link yet, so enter each with a prayer-covered heart and watch for thorns along the way. There are a lot of 'wiccan type' sites out there with medicinal herb information. Just be cautious and enter wide-eyed.
