Anne Stobart is a clinical herbalist, permaculture designer, educator/lecturer, blogger and author. This five-part series was prompted by the January 2024 release of her latest book, Trees and Shrubs That Heal.

In this first conversation, Anne describes her early years in herbal studies, which began in London. Future episodes will cover medicinal shrubs and trees of North America; the history of herbal medicine in the UK; the woody plants of the UK; herb conservation and safety, and more.

She joined me - via Zoom - from Devon, England.

Her website, Medicinal Forest Garden Trust, has free downloads as well as links to her online courses. You can also subscribe to her bi-weekly newsletter, annestobart.substack.com
