A recipe for blackberry leaf tea from Hedgerow Medicine
Posted by Lydia Unwin on
Bramble leaf tea
The leaf tea is like a green tea, pleasant but with a tannin feel. It is also a welcome relief for problems of the mouth, such as ulcers and gum disease. It was once thought to strengthen teeth, and is an old remedy for soothing sore throats and treating colds and anaemia. When cool, the tea makes a good skin lotion.

Posted by Lydia Unwin on
In the July issue of Match Fishing Magazine is a review for a new book by Peter May about the joys of match fishing.
'Match fishing isn’t just about catching mega weights on carp-filled commercials and this book may just remind you why you got into match fishing in the first place. Well worth a read.'
