gardens bring us beauty and lift our spirits-- they are medicine for
the
soul. many of the plants we have in our gardens are medicine for the
body as
well-- in the form of food (vegetables, fruits, greens, grains...),
first aid (tinctures, poultices, salves...), other healthful
preparations
(teas, infusions, tonics, elixers, vinegars, beers, lotions, balms...)
and much more (baskets,
paper, dyes...)!
when you co-create a garden with ustya, you'll learn
to grow the plants you already use in your daily life (most likely
you're already accustomed to buying herbs, many of which you can be
growing yourself), and learn about many new ones! you'll make more use
of your garden by growing plants that are beautiful as well as edible
and medicinal, and cut down on maintenance by learning how to use the
precious weeds that are already volunteering themselves in your garden!
