Expert herbalist Rosemary Gladstar will explain the past and current significance of herbalism, “The History of Herbal Medicine in America". Just what did the early American pioneers rely on for health and healing? How did they survive the ills of the day with just herbs and potions in their medicine cupboards? Are any of these early medicines still useful today, and does science support their validity? Gladstar examines these and other questions and considers the current role of herbs in health care.
