Annette Argabright - The Garden of Medicine - Design 5 When I began my permaculture journey, I wanted to have a relationship with the plants around me. I wanted to know their properties, their behavior, their medicinal and culinary qualities. I wanted to look out and see not just plants and trees, but food and medicine, and know them like friends. Through Rosemary Gladstar's herbalism course, The Science and Art of Herbalism, I found those things. Well I learned much about those things, but have more to learn. My property is small, but there is plenty of space for several gardens filled with the medicinal plants to feed and heal (in more ways than just physical) my family, guests, wildlife, and the soil. Design framework used: CEAP Tools used: Ethics and principles, basemaps, overlays, zones, sectors, microclimates, soil analysis, PNI, SWOC, Web of Connections, Limiting Factors, multiple criteria decision making, financial analysis The goals and vision for this design is to be able to grow as many of the herbs that my family, uses for medicine, and are in my teas that I sell, as possible. A secondary goal is to grow herbs for wildlife and to enrich the soil. As I grow herbs for my family and to sell, I would like to be able to forage my gardens.
