She is very well respected and knowledgeable. I use Susun Weed’s recommendations to use only fresh plant material (except roots, barks, and berries) for tinctures as does she. Drying plants can change the ratio of usable constituents. Some people say drying “concentrates” them, but scientifically, it deactivates certain things like certain oils, terpenes, and polyphenols. I’ve been making plant medicine for more than 40 years. it’s a good thing for people to learn.
