Manage episode 375559704 series 2769802
Welcome to the Sense-Making in a Changing World podcast. This episode is part of our special permaculture writer's series. My name is Morag Gamble.
I am speaking with Devon based herbal practitioner and herb grower, educator, author and founder of the Herbal History Research Network Dr Anne Stobart.
Anne has two books available through Permanent Publications, The Medicinal Forest Garden Handbook (2020), and coming out this year, Trees and Shrubs That Heal: Reconnecting with the Medicinal Forest - with 80 plants profiled, each with a simple recipe. Ann has also published her PhD research, Household Medicine of 17th Century England
Back in the early 1990s, Anne joined a permaculture design course at Dartington in Devon and was inspired to cultivate more herbs for use in her clinical practice.
Anne grew many herbs in the cottage garden and on the allotment. but she and her partner wanted to grow more of their own plant supplies, so purchased Holt Wood in 2004 and transformed it from a redundant conifer plantation into a thriving medicinal forest garden based on a permaculture design.
Anne has worked extensively in education, including leading a professional herbal medicine programme at Middlesex University in London, UK. She is a founding member of the Medicinal Forest Garden Trust, a member of the advisory board for the Journal of Herbal Medicine, and is an Honorary University Fellow at the University of Exeter.
Anne has also published research articles on historical recipes and the history of herbal medicine, and has a continuing interest in research into agroforestry and permaculture related to herbal medicine.
