The Everyday Herbalist

Available in The Grounded Botanicals Apothecary and on Amazon. 

The Everyday Herbalist: Build Your Home Apothecary is a practical, approachable guide to bringing herbal medicine into everyday life. Being an everyday herbalist isn’t memorizing Latin names or having a perfectly stocked apothecary—it’s about building a real, living relationship with the plants growing around you and learning to make simple medicine from what is already close by.

Through hands-on guidance, readers will learn how to create teas, tinctures, infused oils, salves, syrups, vinegars, oxymels, and other foundational herbal preparations while building the skills and confidence to create their own home apothecary.

Many of the plants in these pages may already be in your kitchen or backyard. Others may begin showing up on walks, in gardens, or in unexpected places as you learn to pay attention. The goal is to help you trust yourself, trust the plants, and trust the process one herb, one preparation, and one remedy at a time.

Rooted in curiosity, seasonality, and connection to the Earth, The Everyday Herbalist is an invitation to slow down, work with your hands, and discover how accessible and deeply nourishing herbalism can be for yourself, your family, and your community.
