When our grandmothers needed to attend to the bumps, bruises, fevers and other illnesses their family suffered, they didn't have a corner drugstore. Instead these good women relied on simple wisdom and common sense, and reached into their well stocked pantries for a home remedy. This home herbal remedy collection is my own way of working to preserve their knowledge for future generations. **
No explicit guarantee is made for the effectiveness of these home remedies. As always use common sense and respect for the herbs and natural plants. Note the date where noted on some of the older herbal recipes, you need to know your herbs before taking anything on faith. I am a home herbalist, not a trained medical practioner, and my interest is to preserve and practice the wise woman ways for myself,my family and friends. I do hope you find something of use for you and yours too.

Google has a cool gadget that converts units of weight and volume. Just enter the measure you want to convert from first, i.e. "Cups in quart".
| Equivalence Measures |
|---|
| 1 pinch = less than 1/8 teaspoon (dry) |
| 1 dash = 3 drops to 1/4 teaspoon (liquid) |
| 3 teaspoons = 1 tablespoon = 1/2 ounce (liquid and dry) |
| 2 tablespoons = 1 ounce (liquid and dry) |
| 4 tablespoons = 2 ounces (liquid and dry) = 1/4 cup |
| 1 cup = 8 ounces (liquid) = 1/2 pint |
| 16 cups = 128 ounces (liquid) = 4 quarts = 1 gallon |
| Approximate Equivalents |
| 1 quart (liquid) = about 1 liter |
| 8 tablespoons = 4 ounces = 1/2 cup = 1 stick butter |
