Ever wonder just what you could do to help the medicinals in your garden thrive? In the first half of this series - Planting the Medicinal Garden, we will be playing in the large greenhouse and outdoor garden focusing on soil prep, seeds, and cuttings. In the latter half - Harvesting and Multiplying the Medicinal Garden, we will dive into the details of, and get our hands dirty doing plant plant divisions and harvesting roots and flowers.
Laura Altvater has been growing medicinal herbs in Portland since 1999. Her study of plants began with her bachelors in Botany from Connecticut College. She came to Portland in 1997 to farm flowers and vegetables with Sauvie Island Organics. In 1998 she began working at Portland Nursery to develop her horticultural skills. Since then she has been growing and studying medicinal herbs in her own gardens, at the Herb Pharm in Williams, OR and with many herbalists and healers through out the US. After noticing a lack of medicinal herb starts in the nurseries she began Mostly Medicinals in 2005-2014. Mostly Medicinals is currently not in operation.
