Garden CookBook
My First Edible & Medicinal Garden
Description:... All of the principles within this book are adaptable even if you are not in Far North Queensland. I suggest researching legume and nut trees, flowering plants, herbs, edible greens, and medicinal plants for your area. This book is a guide designed to help start your journey into gardening in Far North Queensland. When it comes to medicinal plants it's overwhelming how much they can do. I have listed potent actions of the plants and a range of symptoms they treat but before ingesting any plant as medicine, research first.Humans have survived on over 4000 species of flora and fauna since we have existed on this planet. Our current food system has us limited to 30, all monoculture-farmed and highly processed. We can change this world overnight. The solution comes in a simple but defiant act. To consume ethically, support local economies, and learn how to grow, cook, and preserve food. Even if you live in an apartment, one well-planted pot is both lowmaintenance and pure joy when you harvest some greens and flavourings or make a herb tea from your garden. Not to mention the satisfaction of hearing the fizz from a ferment you spent 1⁄2 hour making, then sat on the shelf and watched excitedly for bubbles, and now can enjoy for the next few weeks or months.
