Around the world, women in traditional societies know exactly which plants and foods support their milk supply, and they incorporate these into their postpartum diet. In this slim but monumental book, Hilary Jacobson (author of Mother Food), walks us through growing, cooking, infusing and tincturing these lactogenic plants. With sections on outdoor gardening and indoor gardening (sprouts and microgreens) we learn multiple options that allow us to experience the value of fresh plants that are used worldwide for postpartum support. You can learn about 40 such plants, known as 'galactagogues.' You can enjoy specific fruits, vegetables and herbs, and also plants you can wild forage, or identify already growing in your yard as weeds. And if your garden basks in the intense heat of a dry climate, Jacobson's wisdom on 'survival foods' and 'famine foods' ensures that you're also well-equipped to meet the challenges of your environment. Each plant provides information that not only supports breastfeeding, but also enriches your knowledge of human health and culture. Whether for your own breastfeeding needs, your reference book collection, or as a thoughtful baby shower gift, ' A Mother's Garden of Galactagogues' is a treasure. It's a celebration of the nurturing spirit of motherhood, a testament to the resilience of nature, and an empowering guide to boosting maternal health.
