 Great Companion for Herbal Studies May 26, 2010
Leigh Powell (Fredericksburg, VA United States)
The guide selects a few plants each quarter and provides detail on them. It is a good reinforcement for my studies, and it makes me feel like I'm a member of an elitist herbal/wildcrafter group. If you are studying uses for herbs, it's recommended.

Some great information but the con's are the expense and few times a year it's published.
 Takes Your Money and Doesn't send the Magazine January 16, 2009

I can't figure out this magazine company. They put out a good magazine but don't ever subscribe because you won't see an issue. I paid for a 3 year subscription and spent 2 years writing them to ask about my issues. I even sent them a copy of the money order I used to pay for the issues. I was completely ignored. There's just no excuse for taking people's money. Do not subscribe to this magazine!!!

You might try subscribing to this periodical if you have a desire to learn more about herbs, be they medicinal or culinary or for some other human purpose. It's just coincidence of course, but I had a migraine headache this past week and what is the lead article for the Spring 2005 issue? "Chart a course for Migraine Relief". Now how's that for currency? I find various HQ articles are "right on the money" in that respect.
Notice how human use drives human classification schemes in amateur approaches, while botany or science often often takes a different view? I was pleased to see that some of the articles in HQ included scientifically based information such as Latin naming so that I could cross-reference suggested uses. (I read the HQ issues cover to cover, However, I continue to cross-check everything as I don't want to poison myself and/or develop a horrible rash.)
The editors have made a wise decision which is to create a distilled journal with apparently fact-checked information. Rushing into print monthly may cause more than migraine headaches or rashes. Some monthly publications may 'increase' market share because they appear to be more current than a quarterly report, but I am not convinced material hastily prepared will be more useful. You cannot rush solid thinking and distilled knowledge, which some folks still call herbal wisdom.
This journal is full of wisdom.
