Labrador tea, myrica gale, Canadian hemlock… How about discovering the essential oils that grow right here at home?

Specializing in medical anthropology and ethnobotany, Stéphanie Plamondon invites us to explore our beautiful boreal forest. In this informative and practical guide, she presents a detailed overview of our aromatic plants and their infinite therapeutic properties, in addition to introducing us to the manufacture of a host of body products (throat lozenges, lip balm, dry shampoo, etc.). A great journey into the heart of our history and traditions, generously passed down to us by Indigenous communities.
