Reviews"In Sweet Remedies , Dawn Combs heightens our reverence for the bee and its honey. As she takes us from hive to kitchen apothecary, she gives us the tools to create delicious, powerful preparations and shows us that honey is so much more than a tasty sweetener." -- Marlene Adelmann, herbalist and founder of the Herbal Academy "This book is more than good. It's exceptional. Along with a host of honey-rich and herb-abundant recipes, Sweet Remedies offers us a delicious journey into the heart of responsible beekeeping, ecologically-minded herbalism, and sound advice on health and healing. As Dawn Combs writes in Sweet Remedies , 'combining herbs with honey as a regimen for daily health is a growing revolution.' Her book puts Dawn at the forefront of this sweet uprising." -- Rosemary Gladstar, herbalist and author "Bees are living reminders of the magic that takes place in nature's medicinal garden. In Sweet Remedies , Dawn Combs provides an overview of honey's rich history, along with practical recipes for health and insight into how we can be vital advocates for our precious pollinators and plants." -- Susan Leopold, PhD, Director of United Plant Savers "Dawn Combs opens our eyes to the many creative ways the natural pairing of herbs and honey can infuse our lives with sweetness and health. Her expertise as a biodynamic beekeeper, herbalist, and small-batch producer takes making herbal honeys to a whole new level. Pulling from tradition, personal experience, and a little bit of science, she's crafted a bright, beautifully laid-out book that's chock-full of recipes, ideas, and inspiration." -- Maria Noel Groves, author of Body into Balance "Honey has been used as medicine for centuries. In Sweet Remedies , Dawn Combs expands your knowledge of the healing powers of this golden elixir, whether you want to take honey for its antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and immune-boosting properties or you simply want recipes for infusing it with herbal flavors. I highly recommend this guide book as essential reading." -- Shawna Coronado, wellness and health author " Sweet Remedies is just that -- sweet. With great wisdom, Dawn Combs explains the absolutely fascinating life of honey bees, grounds us in modern research and ancient healing traditions from around the planet, then leads us to recipes for mouth-watering, time-tested preparations. Give Sweet Remedies a place on your kitchen shelf and just try to keep these gorgeous pages from merging with your sticky fingerprints." -- Margi Flint, RH HM, Earthsong Herbals Family Practice
