About the Author:
Margaret Roberts, South Africa's herb doyenne and national treasure, received a Laureate Award from Pretoria University for being one of the first organic farmers in South Africa. She has dedicated her life to sharing her knowledge of medicinal and functional food plants, health and gardening through her books, radio and television appearances, lectures and demonstrations. Margaret established the Herbal Centre at De Wildt where she has done ground-breaking work with her daughter Sandy, trialling unusual medicinal and useful plants in harsh South African conditions. She has authored more than 40 books during her 55 years in the industry. Sandy Roberts has been working alongside her mother at the Herbal Centre for the past 32 years as a chef, product developer and business partner. She runs the restaurant at the centre and lectures on a range of topics related to health and organic gardening. She is a talented photographer whose work regularly appears in magazines. She shares her passion for herbs with Margaret and continues the legacy at the Margaret Roberts Herbal Centre.
