3 Great Herb Blogs for Beginners

1. Chestnut School of Herbal Medicine

I love love love Juliet Blankespoor’s sweet and wacky sense of humor, and in fact, it is what captured my attention on this blog in the first place. This is a blog with personality. It is full of great articles about specific herbs, recipes, gardening and growing, and of course her online herbalist courses. Juliet’s blog and courses are complimented by beautiful photos and videos which make them thoroughly enjoyable. I understand that this is another passion and skill she has developed, which makes this blog all the more dear to my heart, as I share her appreciation for these visual arts.

2. Learning Herbs

Learning herbs is a well rounded educational platform that focuses on introducing the uninitiated to the world of herbs. With well organized, plain language and easy to understand content about basic herbal medicine, it is the perfect place for a beginner. Family friendly, learning herbs includes games and learning activities for the kids too. They also offer a paid membership program called Herb Mentor for aspiring and accomplished herbalists alike focusing on ongoing education. Herb Mentor offers all kinds of resources, from a botanic encyclopedia to videos, podcasts, and educational series’ presented by various teachers. Rosalee de la Foret is the educational director. Her own blog is listed later in this post. Worth checking out if you are interested in knowing more about how to apply herbal remedies in your own life, or are perhaps curious about pursuing more education in herbalism.

There are many wonderful informative herb blogs out there, but I’ve narrowed the focus here to those that have some consumable content for readers with no previous experience or exposure to herbalism, and are either looking to incorporate some basic herbal practice into their daily lives, or want a starting point to look more seriously at enhancing their learning of the craft.

3. Mountain Rose Herbs

Yes, they are a commercial retailer and wholesaler of bulk herbs and their own line of products, but also run an engaging blog. Mountain Rose Herbs blog topics are less technical, so oriented towards the consumer who is generally interested in healthful living. The topics are varied and include great herbal recipes (for food dishes, home remedies, and personal care products), environmental advocacy, product information and usage, sustainable farming and business practices, and more. In my experience, their herbs and medicine making products are top notch and convenient to order if you live in the US.
