Noble essences

Greenland Labrador tea, sweet gale, Canadian hemlock... What if we set off to discover our local essential oils?
Specializing in medical anthropology and ethnobotany, Stéphanie Plamondon invites us to explore our beautiful boreal forest. In this informative and practical guide, she presents in detail 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 grand journey to the heart of our history and the traditions generously passed down to us by Indigenous communities.
