Informative, and covers a good variety of basic herbs, flowers, and their preparations. I do wish it had been noted that Judaism, as she mentions Lilith, is a closed practice. However, I appreciate the book overall and would recommend it!

Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine

While mostly focusing on the very basics of green witchcraft (and I mean BASICS), Tuttle also delves a little bit into the eclectic side of things. She gives us a variety of simple recipes to get us started with green witchcraft and presents the basics of foraging and herbalism.

Pur essendo parecchio New Age, sono rimasta colpita dal fatto che non fosse di matrice Wicca e sapesse bene la differenza fra paganesimo, neopaganesimo e stregoneria. Secondo me molto meglio di Green Witch della Hiscock, sicuramente lo consiglierò ai miei followers.

A thorough look at using herbs in witchcraft and medicine, with health warnings. I appreciated the author's notes about ethics and appropriation (though her brief mention of Lilith doesn't indicate she/Judaism is closed).

This was yet another great book about witchcraft. I have now read a couple of books on green witchcraft specifically and this one is very good. It is laid out very intuitively and covers a lot of information a lot of which I didn't really know. The photos that are included are also beautiful and really make the experience so much better. This is another witchcraft book that is set up a bit like a coffee table book so you can just flip through it and read the sections that you want to at the moment without having to read the whole thing cover to cover. I had a fun time looking at the different sections as each of them had something unique to offer. Green witchcraft may not necessarily be for me but I can see this book being very helpful to others who want to get into the practice.

Thank you, NetGalley!
I am always going to be obsessed with all things Green Witch Magick! That will never change.
What I love most about these educational books, is that learning and knowledge is the foundation for all things magick.
If you are looking for beginner, intermediate, and advanced herbal remedy, recipes, and magical workings - this is the book for you. I am a newbie when it comes to forging, so this was a little treat. I am extremely looking forward to the upcoming Yule season and all the herbs that can be found and used for magical work.
Once again, this book is for anyone that wants to become more entuned with the earth and all the good that can come. Tons of information.
Would recommend!

A free copy of this book was provided through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
I really loved this book, especially all the illustrations and images as well as the recipes in the third part. Furthermore, I liked that the author chose to focus on a few chosen herbs and go more in-depth with each one, keeping in mind accessibility for witches all across the world. Another plus is that the author points out multiple times that readers should do further research on their own and keep in mind that some herbs might cause skin irritation, issues for pregnant people or that they might interact with medications or health issues.
I highly recommend this book for everyone interested in green witchcraft but I'm convinced that even other practitioners will have great use for this book.
