Tinctures capture and concentrate the vital healing power of herbs in a way that can be conveniently stored for years. Made with a solvent, usually alcohol, they are easy to use when the need arises. John Redden is owner of Viriditas Herbal Products, a manufacturer of professional grade herbal tinctures used by practicing herbalists, naturopaths, and doctors. Every summer John goes on extended collecting trips across Ontario to gather the wild herbs he needs to make his tinctures, and many in the healing profession consider his tinctures to be among the best available. In this seminar John shows how you can make and use your own tinctures made with herbs from your garden. John maintains an active clinic alongside his tincture business, and he has taught herbal pharmacy at the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine and was editor of the Canadian Journal of Herbalism.
