Wise women, apothecaries, witches, herbalists: whatever you call them, those who cultivate plants for their fabled mystical and healing properties have existed for thousands of years.

Greek myth includes stories of Hecate, the Patroness of Witches, who teaches Her daughters about the herbal arts. They, in turn, taught all witches how to use this knowledge.

Plant lore from that point forward became a sacred trust for wise people and cunning folk everywhere−for healing, love, fertility, prosperity, and every other kind of magic imaginable.
