Books, Books, Books!

It's that time of year when we are looking at our gardening books, plant books and for me, herb books. But saying that, I am looking at books ALL YEAR ROUND!!. Here I share some of my current favourites.
I also have a couple of my own books, The Weed Handbooks Volume 1 and 2 which you can find here - www.danusirishherbgarden.com/...
Books are dear friends that I go back to time and again and I love to get hold of new books just as we like to meet new friends. I turn to my gardening books when I am planning my garden in spring time and same goes for my herb garden. If you are interested in herbs and herbal medicine, have a look at my course - Introduction to Herbal Medicine here - www.danusirishherbgarden.com/...
While we are talking about courses I also offer a Wise Woman Way training. This is a transpersonal course which follows the Celtic Wheel of the Year around the eight Celtic Fire Festivals. Using shamanic and druidic techniques, this course offers an opportunity for personal healing as well as a deeper connection with the Earth and the Divine Feminine. You can find out more here - www.danusirishherbgarden.com/...
Here is a link to a Ted talk that a friend sent to me - so joyful and something we can all do - • TED TALK: Pam Warhurst...
Here is a link to an event I am delighted to be involved with. It is a FREE webinair with different speakers discussing how we can connect more deeply with ourselves and with Nature. It will take place in March but you can sign up now.

We live in zone 3 - considered VERY cold :) High desert etc. Mountainous region in NW USA-Rocky mountains. Cannot grow up here without a greenhouse @ 3500'. Very short season etc. Snowing today. But our mountain has an abundance of wild herbs - everywhere. So, we consider ourselves blessed. Many a lovely walk with our border collie collecting all the gifts that God's provides in the early spring months.

[@tennesseenana4838]

Basically, the plant zones divide the U.S. into areas and mainly tell us the lowest temperature F that perennial plants can survive. A plant in zones 1 - 6 can survive colder winters. Zones 7 - 10 are for the plants that wouldn't survive winters of zero degrees F or below. I think that the chemicals sprayed on produce that's sold in grocery stores also contribute to people's illnesses. Besides that, they don't taste very good anymore. For example, there's a huge difference in the taste of tomatoes sold in the stores to the ones I grow in my garden. Thank you for sharing those books with us. They all sound very interesting. It seems that we tend to know more about the internal workings of our computers than those of our bodies. Two of the books I've learned a lot from are: 'The Homesteaders' Herbal Companion' by Amy Fewell and, of course, Rosemary Gladstar's 'Medicinal Herbs, A Beginner's Guide.

[@jeanneamato8278]

There is a new way of looking zones now because of the climate change, and there are now heat zones. How warm can plants tolerate temperatures. Sad but now necessary. Reading keeps me relatively sane.

[@jturtle5318]

I'm in zone 5, where plants can survive to -20°F. One day of -24°F was enough to kill several young zone 5 perennials for me. Each Ag zone is graded by minimum and maximum temperatures.

[@jturtle5318]

​@@jeanneamato8278yes. Recently my zone 5 garden has experienced zone 4A winters and 6A summers. I no longer buy zone 5 perennials because I've lost them in a cold snap.

[@theclumsyprepper]

@@jeanneamato8278 What's sad about the changing climate? It's a natural process that always happened and always will. Best just to get used to it and adapt, like our ancestors did.

[@maureenr9958]

I am working my way thru my course work to become a certified herbalist in the US. After being in the medical field for over 20 years, I have begun to really see things in a different like. I love your book suggestions and am going to look into them. I love your videos! Thank you for those pearls of wisdom.

PDR for HERBAL MEDICINE is good and How To Be Your Own Herbal Pharmacist by Linda Rector Page P.H.D., N.D.! The Herbal Medicine Maker's Handbook by James Green! 🍃🌿☮️

[@karennewbury6430]

Hello Maureen R. I too am 'working my way through' to earn certification as a herbalist. Truly, once someone starts studying plant medicine, they never look at their own backyard the same way. Good luck on your journey. Blessings from Canada.🍁

[@lolhardiman5247]

You sound like a healer who has found the path with heart. Blessings on your journey ❤

[@danieladaogaru244]

Hi dearest Teri, I found your taste and your choice of books flawless. It was very much appreciated. Thank you and I hope that showing to us books you love will become a standing feature of Danu's Irish Herb Garden videos. Love to you all!

[@therealmysticmoon]

"Nourishing Traditions" is an excellent book! I have one, bought one for my daughter, and have an extra on my shelf for some lucky soul who is interested 😊

[@cynthiahamblin-perry5880]

Sally Fallon's books are wonderful. I raised my children back in the 90s on her book and still refer to her books today - you will love it! I first started making bone broth and ferments years ago because of her. You are so right about people's diets of fake food - it is scarey and we wonder why we have so much obesity and diabetes these days. Eat real food, drink pure, unchlorinated, flouride free water and don't use chemicals anywhere. Nature provides all we need. I hear from people they don't have time to prepare food. When my children were little I worked full time and made all my weekly meals on Sundays and froze extras too so we always had ready made but real food. Make it a priority. Our health and well being are worth it. Thanks for sharing what you are reading. I just finished Lucy Pearce books She of the Sea and Creatrix - both excellent. I also read Wintering and Enchanted, both by Katherine May. Think you would enjoy thoe too. Imbolic Blessings

PS/ couldn't help notice you had a few books written by John Steinback, me too! He was a very good friend of my mum's, & based a character on her from the story 'Tortilla Flat'.🌹

I love that you ordered more books and enjoy sitting with them. I was an avid reader once and have many herb books, cookbooks plus other interests I have but the bloody internet has ruined me. It's my own fault. It's so much easier to google something. I have been thinking of changing this for a while now, I just need to make the effort. I needed this today. I loved All the light we cannot see. Read it years back and the mini series wasn't half bad. You might like Louise Erdrich's books. I have read all of them. I am on Goodreads and checked off many of the books I have read. I wish I had written down all of them. I'd fill a book. It will be a few more months before I can sow seeds.

[@judithrussell9162]

My most precious book is a 1790 herbal called The Family Herbal by Meyrick, I refer to it regularly and it is a treasure. I'm also still fond of Elizabeth Goudge's books, The White Witch and Herb of Grace. I've had them since I was a child and they got me interested in natural healing. Thanks so much for your recommendations and your lovely video.

[@christinebrooker5050]

Love, love, love knowing what you read. So inspiring. Interested in the Grow your own drugs on your shelf, as well as the others!, shall look for it. Reminded me to start sowing my seeds. Thank you.

[@veronicasmith1147]

Absolutely beautiful and fantastic books ❤🌷🪷💐

[@marilynroberts6644]

Hello Terri, Lol and all your furry and feathery friends.. I have 2 of the books you mentioned and read them often. The Healing Garden and Robin Rose Bennett's book.. Because I'm in the US and the desert, much is different in how we garden and what I can grow but I just love learning about your herbal allies and seeing how your garden grows. Thank you again for sharing your thoughts and the most picturesque scenery. Blessings to you always 💜

Fab . My two favourite pastimes. Herbal gardening and reading 😊 I’ve just read a exceptionally good book called The Midnight Library by Matt Haig … well worth a read 🙏

[@marymiles9922]

I wish it was gardening season here! We are still in the frozen snowy winter. What a lovely collection of books! Your kitty looks like he's quite old. One of mine is about 18 and starting to slow down. Do you only have the one kitty? Thank you for the video. Blessings 🙏

[@marielbello6305]

Hi Terri and Lol, Yes we are what we eat!! The bioma of our intestines is directly connected to our levels of consciousness, hence to our vibrational spirituality!!! I will get the books for my sis, she is studying to be a herbologist!!! My brother just got the nursery started. From Montreal to the laurentians the temperature changes, just 70km away and the soil and weather is much colder, no good for certain plants... we are going with two hydroponic towers for herbs, for all year round results... Yes we are one with the plants... Love the books and the tea cups with plants!!!! Blessings and blessings and more blessings!!!! I feel you are part of my spiritual family!!!! 😃🙏🌹🍎

[@hannahsemple]

Sally Fallon is an excellent authority on nourishing foods. Enjoy her book. The Snow Child by Eowyn Ivey was a book that I loved for its descriptions of the harsh Alaskan landscape. I’ve always loved Alaska for some reason

Hello Terri, good day to you - it had been a while since you had popped up in my feed, this is a delightful surprise :) after discovering the book of Kells thanks to you, I'm very much looking forward to getting these titles as well. Have a lovely rest of your day!

[@YJM2002]

Thank you for all your lovely book recommendations - they look great! I think you would really enjoy a book called 'All my wild mothers' by Victoria Bennett (the paperback version has just come out on 1st Feb too.) It's a memoir about motherhood, loss and an apothecary garden. It's beautifully written, uplifting and each new chapter starts with a description of and herbal uses/folklore of some of the 'weeds' of Cumbria, north west England. There's a subtle link between each plant and the memories which follow too. It's an absolutely delightful and deeply moving book - I can't recommend it highly enough! 🥰💗

[@equinnox70]

That sounds like a wonderful book! I will be looking for that one. Thank you!

[@lesleyohanlon209]

I just love that your home is full of books. Mine too. Gardening books, herbal books, legend and lore, fact and fiction. Hundreds, and I can't bear to part with any of them

Complete Book of Self-Sufficiency John Seymour

[@bluelight017]

Its great that you're sharing your love of books. I love the related topics. I always think how over the centuries we lost/forgot/ ignored what our ancestors knew about self sufficiency and what is naturally available to us. I hope everything goes full circle. It seems as if there is a revival. I think people are starting to realise the damage, greed and corruption of big pharma too. It's about getting the balance and best of both worlds. ❤

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

I think you are right. Things are slowly changing and people looking for more natural and real ways to take care of themselves. sxx

[@jennyl.3742]

I live in Missouri, USA. We sow our potatoes,garlic, and onions on St. Patrick's Day. Rain or shine or snow...a tradition. My father and his father and his father, etc. I love reading. I'll have to get that Florilegium book. I absolutely love botanical books, herb books, and gardening books. I also just bought 3 different books that deal with my local Ozark folklore and herbalism. Was excited to get them. We are still in winter here. The dandelions are just peeking through the ground. Missouri has a tendency of having freezes in April. Actually last year we had a hard freeze May 10th. So most things get planted post Mother's Day. Our zones are just that. The further north the colder and cooler it stays, the futher souther the warmer. Certain plants won't survive, whether the weather stays too cold or too warm. I'm central. We get super cold and super hot. Lol. I enjoyed your book haul. I'm a huge fantasy lover myself. Am caught up in a series by Adrian Tchaikovsky called Echoes of the Fall. Book 1 is The Tiger and the Wolf. Book 2 is The Bear and the Serpent. Book 3 is The Hyena and the Hawk. If you enjoy fantasy, I highly recommend it. Thanks so much for sharing!

Absolutely loved this film! 💖 Thank you. The most interesting people are people who love books. I'm a writer also (but relatively boring). I'm a law professor who writes books about law. If you need to know the law, they are quite good, and have been best sellers for years. But what I love reading is books about plants, herbalism, shamanism, and the connections between our world and the broader spiritual realm. Peace be with you friend. 💖🕊🍀

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Congratulations John, on having best sellers. They won't be boring, I am sure, for people who love reading about law. I have quite a few books about shamanism too - very fascinating subject. Brian Bates's book brings me to tears. xx

What a wonderful episode! Thank you so much. I can't find the list of the books, though. One book (of very many) that I could recommend is ''Moon Time'' by Johanna Paunger which is about the ideal time to do anything - sowing and planting, herbs and much, much more. Written by an Austrian woman many moons ago and translated into English, it's a real ''go-to-book'' and includes things like when to build and what wood to use etc.. I hope it still in print. It's a gem on how to be self-sufficient.

Oh Terri! Thank you for this video. I have Juliet Blankespoor's 'The Healing Garden'. It is a beautiful book. I've made Juliet's 'Nourishing Skin Tea' recipe (p 261). I also have 'Medicinal Herbs' by Rosemary Gladstar. I've made quite a few featured recipes from this book. Another choice of mine is 'Foraging and Feasting, A Field Guide and Wild Foods Cookbook'. I treated myself to this one when I finished a select herbal program, and I purchased a second copy for a sweet couple as a wedding gift. I recently purchased the 5 book set by Dr. Jill Stansbury ND, 'Herbal Formularies For Health Professionals'. I'm a student of herbal studies, but hope someday to earn the honour of being called a 'Green Witch'. ... I have so many books. Have you ever read Anne of Green Gables? You must!

Great visit with you & thanks for sharing! I haven’t read many books but do lots of reading about food, health & gardening online. When I do find a good book about someone’s lifestyles & the way they achieved their life, I find it so hard to put down. One of my favourites was “Random Passage” but I don’t recall the author right now. It is based on the true life of Irish families that came by ship to Newfoundland, Canada, & somehow survived the horrible hardships of a desolate land. There was also a sequel to that story that I don’t recall the name of. Blessings to all🤗🇨🇦

Hello Terri I thought I had a lot of books, look at you! I try to curb my book addiction, but it continues. I will be checking out the titles you shared for certain! At the moment I'm reading 'The Secret of Atlantis' by Otto Muck. My B'day was last month so I always treated myself to a book that was a bit more pricey even though it's a secondhand one (my favourites!). So this year, it's a book called 'Holy Ice' by Frank Dorland. It's a first edition & was signed by the author, so I'm over the Moon! I cheated & ordered another one too called 'The Holographic Universe" by Michael Talbot. Thanks for sharing I'm a Hopeless Bookaholic!!!🐝🌻🐛❤

I love that you get duplicates of books! Sometimes we end up with extras too. It is a wonderful way to gift a book to others without losing your own. I can't think of anything more generous than the giving of a book that you love. I currently am diving into Evolutionary Herbalism by Sajah Popham. Wow he has such a big net he is casting out into the realms of plants, us, the planet and beyond. Sometimes I think I have so much to take in and not enough time then I re-calibrate and see the joy of new ideas as a gift. Thanks Terri for keeping the spirit of curiosity high on our minds.

The Secret Life of Bees, by Sue Monk Kidd. My fave in fiction.

Uhh gardening and books my two best things in the world ! Oh I do love a good murder, Agatha Christie is a queen of murder plot. Ann Cleeves is brilliant, I am devouring her Vera series now. Simon Brett and his Fethering Mysteries is a good read too and of course the fabulous MC Beaton and her Agatha Rasin series - brilliant !

I loved Agatha Christie when I was younger, so clever
