Grow Your Own Spices: Harvest Homegrown Ginger, Turmeric, Saffron, Wasabi, Vanilla, Cardamom, and Other Incredible Spices -- No Matter Where You Live!

by Tasha Greer Author and Greta Moore Illustrator

This book is a guide for gardeners of all skill levels, teaching the reader how to cultivate a thriving spice garden. Author Tasha Greer provides practical tips and in-depth advice on growing over 30 different spices, including ginger, turmeric, saffron, cumin, and more. Unlike herbs, which are grown from their green leaves, spices are derived from the seeds, roots, bark, or berries of plants. Growing, harvesting, and preparing spices requires a nuanced approach compared to growing herbs. Beyond their culinary benefits, spices are recognized for their potential to combat inflammation and reduce various health risks. Expert herbalist Lindsey Feldpausch offers medical usage tips throughout the book, providing well-researched guidance on how to incorporate homegrown spices into your well-being.
