This spooky October collection celebrates the natural world in all its beauty and danger. Plants are everywhere; you can find them entwined in our natural environments, cultures, and imaginations. For millennia, people have cultivated, crushed, brewed, and burned them: healing the sick with tinctures, poisoning rivals with potions, or seeking visions through altered states of consciousness. Although plant medicines have been cherished by cultures over space and time, many have become stigmatized or even illegal due to the destructive legacy of colonialism. Laws, misconceptions, and fear have overshadowed knowledge that has been preserved for generations, obscuring the wisdom, science, and artistry embedded in traditional plant use. Explore books that celebrate the magic, mystery, and complexity of plants that tickle the senses, expand the mind, and remind us of the deep connections between humans and the natural world. This collection explores different plants and their uses, whether spiritual, recreational, medicinal, or...deadly!
