Country Wisdom: Over 400 Practical Ideas for a Natural Home and Garden

More than 100 "recipes" for the garden, kitchen and general home management are presented here, to demonstrate the joys and benefits of traditional country knowledge. The subjects range from companion planting and natural household cleaners to natural beauty and herbal remedies, and from recipes for the country harvest to love potions and celebratory customs. Reflecting mostly a female culture, the book represents a heritage based on an understanding of nature treasured by country people all over the world. It is a homage to those people who know the usefulness of plants and can harness the rhythms of the seasons almost instinctively, and it champions those who know how to enjoy life without relying totally on technology and chemicals.
