Book launch - Trees and Shrubs that healNew book about herbal medicine from trees and shrubs! Visit The Bookery in Crediton to hear from expert herbal author Anne Stobart about her new book Trees and Shrubs That Heal (Permanent Publications, October 2023). From ginkgo leaves to hawthorn hips, there are many ways to help ourselves stay well with fruits, leaves and other plants which are around us. Anne's knowledge is invaluable for anyone interested in healing with plants and natural remedies. She is an experienced medical herbalist and has previously published books about the history of herbs and growing herbs. Anne and her partner transformed a redundant conifer plantation and developed a thriving medicinal woodland. In this new book Anne shares the learning from that project and includes many recipes for using parts of trees and shrubs. Come along on Saturday 4th November 2023 to hear about the making of the book and about the many ways you can use it. You can also gain advice about identifying plants that heal and see examples of the herbal preparations you can make.

Tree CareOur young trees (especially those in Beacon Park EX17 2HB , on the corner of Avranches Avenue and George Hill) need a bit of autumn TLC- weeding, re-staking, mulching etc; possibly replacing. Please bring a drink and a snack, and whatever kit you can manage - gloves, secateurs, fork/ spade/ trowel, bucket, hammer… Welcome to roll up on the day or (to be ultra-helpful) write in to let me know you're coming. Thanks! Caroline Romijn: info@sustainablecrediton.org.uk
