Medicinal Herbs

Does anyone grow or make brews for their own herbal medicines?

I used to and made my own tinctures, this year I want to grow motherwort and make my own motherwort tinctures, I've been taking it now for 3 weeks and boy does it help my heart physically and emotionally.

PS I put a post about motherwort that has lots of good info on it.

My medicinal herb garden had over 30 different herbs, I tinctured the ones that most interested me, then a two/three year drought wiped out most of the garden. Lemon Balm, Spearmint and Peppermint survived so I can still use them for a refreshing beverage. I also use the mint leaves - and dandelion leaves, plantain leaves - for an herbal vinegar. Valerian, Skullcap, Passionflower and Echinacea also survived. Growing, making, and using medicinal herbs is very rewarding.

Started my own herb garden a year ago and its doing really well this year, adding to it monthly! trying to find some yarrow at the moment. Found some great books too on different properties of them. Very rewarding.

You will only have to plant Valerian once...it will self propagate and reseed year after year.
