Description
Before pharmacies. Before hospitals. Before access was equal, families relied on memory, land, and community knowledge to care for themselves.
This book documents the history and traditions of ancestral Black healing practices across the American South, blending storytelling, cultural preservation, and household remedies passed from elders to children.
Inside you’ll find:
• Historical context of African and Southern folk medicine
• Teas, broths, poultices, and salves prepared in the home
• Kitchen-based wellness traditions
• Seasonal and everyday care practices
• An alphabetical herbal reference guide
Educational and historical in nature. Not medical advice.
