My Trip to Scotland and the History of Western Herbalism #40

Visiting Scotland and marveling at the juicy blackberries, rosehips, hawthorn, and elderberries led me to ponder about the history of Western Herbalism and our relationship to the plants that grow around us. Why do we use the pants we use? What is our role in preserving and passing on the knowledge? How did our perception of health and healing change through history? And, where are we now?
I visited the amazing Scottish Wild Food Festival organized by a team around Rox Madeira who I found through listening to her podcast "The Sage's Cabin". It was lovely to meet her and her family at the festival, and we enjoyed taking part in so many activities, from herb walks to workshops and trying wild foods and herbs in beautiful nature. I'm so thankful for this experience.
