Books and More

The following is a list that I’ve compiled of books, card decks, games, posters and anything else that focuses on herbal learning and is kid friendly. I’ll add to it as I come across more! If you have any suggestions, send them to info AT herbalroots zine DOT com so I can add them! Please note, I do NOT sell these or have these available, they are just a list of resources that are OUT THERE for you and your children to explore.
