I made an
“Herb
Girl”
out of me
By Shoshanna Easling
When I first started
learning about herbs
and their properties I was
captivated by the possibilities.
I knew that if half of everything
I was reading was true, a lot
of people were missing out
on the healing power of God’s
plants. First I needed to test them for
myself. I had to know if they really worked
as well as the books claimed. So with the
little herb research I had done I made a dark
green herb salve and gave a quart of it to some
missionaries who were heading to the mountains
of Papua New Guinea with their five kids.
In a few months they wrote asking for more.
They were living deep in the jungle among a tribe
of people while learning to speak the language. It
was a three day hike to a dirt air strip where a little
plane could transport them to a town—when a plane
was available. A long way from medical help, they
discovered that my green salve was very effective
in treating a variety of ailments, from boils to rashes
to ringworms and more. I was blown away. I did the
research, but reading about the field (jungle) tested
results was a whole new perspective. I was hooked,
went back to the books—many books—and I have
been Herb Girl ever since.
