Plant Healer Magazine Call For Submissions Extended to Nov. 15th
Good news! The premier issue of
Plant Healer: A Journal of Traditional Western Herbalism has been extended to November 15th, in response to requests from the number of herbalists, botanists and other authors who weren’t aware of the original deadline in time. And by being an online publication, we can make Plant Healer longer and include more material than paper magazines can.
Plant Healer is a far reaching, folk rooted quarterly that will feature fine art, monographs and in depth articles, subscriptions to open this month. For more information go to:
