From the Guide:
When wildcrafting I approach each plant with respect and humility, express my gratitude for all the plant has done and will do for me and my community, and make offerings. I sing and pray every step of the way to ensure that the medicine I make is imbued with the spirit of the plant. Because the taste of the plant reflects it’s medicinal effect, my goal is to make medicine that tastes just like the fresh plant. Please use these ratios and percentages as a starting point in your own tincturing explorations, and always remember to listen. The plants speak softly, but they have so much to share. Many thanks to Michael Moore & Richo Cech for their medicine making inspiration!
