Botanical Illustrations Workbook

The Botanical Illustrations Workbook includes 25 botanically accurate illustrations of fun-to-forage plants that commonly occur in the United States, summary monographs to expand your learning experience of these plants, and blank pages for additional sketches and note-taking! Coloring each plant as you learn about its identifying features and edible and herbal uses is a great way to cement your knowledge of these special wild plants.

The botanically accurate plant illustrations were created by Kristine Brown, RH(AHG), herbalist, illustrator, and creator of Herbal Roots Zine. She captured these 25 plants in beautiful illustrations ready for your colored pencils, markers, crayons, and observation skills. The monograph summaries alongside each plant illustration presents detailed information on the botanical features as well as information on the plant’s edible and herbal uses. The 25 plants featured in this workbook are also spotlighted in our Botany & Wildcrafting Course, where you’ll find larger monographs for each, along with lessons on proper identification, patterns within common plant families, and harvesting ethics and techniques.

In addition to being a botanical identification tool, this workbook also offers a delightful way to incorporate art therapy into your daily or weekly routine as a stress reduction tool. So brew yourself a cup of tea, sharpen those colored pencils, and settle in with a live plant specimen in the field or a plant ID guide at your desk, and enjoy getting to know these 25 plants!
