URBANherbal . . .

In Webster’s Dictionary the definition of urban is; of relating to, characteristic of, or constituting a city. One living in a city.

It's the way we live now.

Herbal is much more complex, through the centuries in which man has explored and recorded, his findings in the world of herbs.

In 2008 there is a new meaning to the word herbal. Phytomedicines, plant based cosmetics, nutriceuticals and fusion cuisine that sources herbs from around the world.

We are learning and rediscovering what we owe to plants and respecting them and in some cases worshiping them again.

Plants are, after all, the basis for our life and our continuing life-support system.

Herb. Whats in a name we cherish? The plants we call "herbs" come from the Latin word herba, meaning "green crops." Generally aromatic or fragrant, whose parts, whether leaf, flower, seed or root, are useful to mankind for food, flavoring, medicine, household and cosmetic!

Whatever we make of it, the future's HERBAL!

Enjoy URBANherbal.
