Here’s a book review of Herbal Tea Gardens, by Marietta Marshal Marcin, for those interested in starting an herb garden but who don’t know where to begin. I LOVE this simply formatted book making herbal tea gardens a reality for anyone.

Vet at the Library
Occasionally I binge – at the library, that is. Do you ever just walk down the gardening or homesteading section of your local library and lose your mind. Do you pull nearly every book from the shelf, convinced you’re going to read every single one?!
This little gem, Herbal Tea Gardens, came to me via one of those episodes at the library. I loved it so much that I bought my own copy! In fact, I encourage everyone to vet books through your local library. If you have a book you really want to see before you buy, let your librarian know.
You could start with our book, for example. If your local library branch does NOT carry The Do It Yourself Homestead, politely let your librarian know that you’d love to be able to find it there.
Also, shoot me an email at Tessa@homesteadlady.com and let me know the name of your library branch and, if you have it, their contact information. We’re currently working hard to see to it that every library across the country has their own copy to share with their patrons. It’s a lofty goal and we could use your help!
Also, if you’re interested in really delving into medicinal herbal education, be sure to check out The Herbal Academy. From novice to experienced herbalist, there’s a class for you. Click below for more information.
This definitely sounds like a book that I would like. thank you for linking up at Wildcrafting Wednesdays!
Sometimes when I go to the library I need a big reusable tote to put all by books in. Last time I picked up my books there were 14! What was a thinking?
Were you by yourself? I usually do that when, by some miracle, I end up there without the kids. I act like I’m book starved!
Great review. Another one to add to my list. And, yes, I do the same thing at the library. I especially love books with lots of pictures. Thanks for linking up to Non Fiction Book Love.
I love it! I have an herb garden, never thought of it as an herbal “tea” garden 🙂
I love herbs too and it’s amazing how much we can learn from them. This sounds like a really good book to look through…thanks for the review.
