My new book, Backyard Garden Witchery, is about to come out! It's being called a natural companion for Kitchen Witchery.


Like Kitchen Witchery this book is loaded with magickal information to enrich your daily practice. Featuring a huge list of correspondences and instructions to help you create your own unique outdoors sanctuary.
