We just put out another glorious issue! Every single magazine continues to amaze me with the wondrous content that our contributors send in. More than 20 years in, very few subjects have been repeated, even though we do try to include lots of information on how to do the things we discuss each issue. Once again, we've been graced with new and fascinating content.

In case you aren't familiar with The Essential Herbal, we switched from a print magazine to a digital magazine after 20 years a couple years ago when the pandemic hit. We decided at that time to send a little something "Extra!" - which is what we named the smaller supplemental issue - so that subscribers get something from us on the 20th of every month!
