For thousands of years, people have used herbs for a wide variety of purposes including cooking, perfumes, disinfectants, medicinal remedies as well as currency. Herbs are of course still used extensively today, mainly for medicines.

You may well have a few small jars or pots filled with herbs in your kitchen which you probably use to flavour and spice up your food! Cookery books are full of recipes that use herbs.
The herbs today come from all over the world and over the centuries we have learned how to use them from past chroniclers.
These chroniclers came from ancient Egypt, Sumaria and Greece. Hippocrates, the famous ancient Greek doctor regularly used herbal remedies and we also learned about herbs from the Druids well before the Romans invaded Britain!

In the Middle-Ages monks in Europe used herbs for medicines grown in their herb gardens. They used these medicines not only for themselves but also for local people and travelers passing through!
We know that people of all ages from many different countries used herbs because they wrote about them. In Britain for example, Nicholas Culpeper's book showed ordinary people how to prepare their own herbal remedies.
In the 15th and 16th centuries, the Pilgrim Fathers took herbs with them on their voyage to America. Then, over time native American herbs found their way back to Europe and other parts of world.
