The Medicinal and Useful-Plant Garden Bulletin


What makes a plant worth giving space in your garden?

This free 12-page field guide shares what we are learning through the Medicinal & Useful-Plant Garden at Tuskegee Honey in Alabama's Black Belt Prairie.

You'll meet plants such as hibiscus roselle, butterfly pea, luffa, African blue basil, turmeric and mint, while exploring ways plants can provide food and beverages, household and craft materials, pollinator support, compost material, seeds and more.

You'll also find practical ideas for choosing plants that fit your growing conditions, designing a garden you can actually maintain, conserving soil moisture, and planning for the work that comes after harvest.

This isn't meant to tell you what you should grow. It's an invitation to think about a simple question:

What plants would earn a place in your garden — and why?
