Thursday, 15th June 2017

From Steph Hafferty's talk at the South West Permaculture Convergence.

Here she shares how and why she makes her own home and garden potions, all but one of which are made from plants grown in the UK.

From soapwort and horsetail, to comfrey, calendula and rosemary.

Steph shares recipes and growing tips on this topic in her co-authored book with Charles Dowding, No Dig Home and Garden, available here: http://www.green-shopping.co.uk/no-dig-organic-home-garden.html
