Synopsis

Designed for both beginners and experienced witches, this illustrated guide brings together practical herbal knowledge and magical practice, with a particular focus on the resilient plants found in overlooked, often urban spaces. It considers wild herbs that can be eaten or used in balms, creams, and ointments, alongside their magical applications.

Each chapter moves to a new setting, from city edges and railway lines to country roads, undergrowth, and the seafront, introducing the witch who lives there and the weeds available in that environment. Recipes for cooking and cosmetics sit alongside guidance on magical uses, making it an easy-to-navigate companion for readers looking to incorporate more herbs into their practice.
