When I first learned that the plants were medicine my first thought was, How did I not know that sooner?
Much of this is likely to be about growing in Frederick, Maryland – a wide landscape of agricultural crops, where corn, soybean and a piece of wheat filled the fields. But even more about my inability to enter information circulating freely online. As a dull child in the nineties, I grew up with the Internet boom. There was information there – glypses of herbHolistic health, alternative medicine, which tend to the soil – but most was not titled. Even television, a major source of knowledge and culture, was largely inaccessible. (Spoiler Alert: Still is.)
