19th-century Shaker communities were especially successful in growing and selling vegetable seeds and medicinal herbs. Today, when many American are turning to herbal remedies as a supplement or alternative to modern medicine, the Shakers' knowledge of medicinal plants is especially timely. They studied the work of botanists and "root and herb" doctors to determine which plants to grow and how to process them, and they sold hundreds of kinds of dried herbs, extracts, oils, and patent medicines. This book recounts the history of this important business, with quotations from the Shakers' reference sources and their gardening journals. Photos.
