This kit comes with the Medicines to Help Us Book, along with 8 x 11″ prints where one side gives a beautiful overview of each of the plants described, and on the back, each forms one piece of a wall-sized puzzle that can be put together to create a large scale print of Métis artist Christi Belcourt’s painting “Medicines to Help Us”.
