Rosehips can be forraged this autumn. They have a very high level of vitamin C and antioxidants. They are pleasant to drink in a tea infusion.
To brew a tea you need 2 teaspoons of dried rose hips in an infuser and submerge it in a cup (240 ml) of boiled water. Add a sweetener like honey to help balance out the flavor. Can be drunk hot or cold.
Hawthorn berries are out this autumn. Prepare hawthorn tea by simmering 1 tablespoon of dried berries in 2 cups of water for 10 to 15 minutes. You can drink the tea up to three times a day. It is good for anxiety, sleep problems, digestive problems like diarrhea and stomachache, menstrual problems and to increase urine output.

You shouldn't take hawthorn with other heart medicines. These include digitalis. Don't take sedatives or sleeping medicines while taking hawthorn. You also shouldn't take hawthorn if you're taking phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitors.

The book starts out with some great information about general gardening. It then lists a good number of herbs, flowers, and berries, talking about their health benefits, how to grow them, and finally how to use them. There are beautiful photos and the information is easy to understand. If you're looking for a particular herb or health condition, just check the Index ... it is complete and very helpful. I think this book is a "must have" for anyone wishing to grow herbs, especially herbs with medicinal properties.
Backyard Pharmacy helps you choose the best "backyard" medicinal plants. All the plants can easily be grown throughout North America by any home gardener, and used for their healing and natural-remedy properties! Author Elizabeth Millard shares her deep knowledge of what to add to your garden to grow your own medicine cabinet to enhance your health.
To any Christians reading this...God has given us power over evil...and his peace which passes all understanding. Also may you achieve self sufficiency in many areas of your life. With God's help this is possible.
To all people who are not Christian but follow their own belief system I speak peace and healing and blessings for your journey to self sufficiency. May you triumph over any evil forces that try to come against the people in the nation where you come from. Positive thinking is the key, always positive.

If you want a greenhouse look into buying a plastic one as it's a fraction of the price and more portable.
