  • Niche info and thorough research on plants, medicine, and history, with a modern perspective

  • I’m learning so much!

    I agree, she is the normal one. But also! I love getting to learn more about plants and other possible things to avoid that could kill me. Tbh, I have been searching for books on this subject. Oddly difficult to find at my local book stores.
