St Hildegard

St. Hildegard

 

That’s right – this canna-lover is a Catholic saint.

 

If you’re not familiar with Hildegard von Bingen, you should be. Born in Germany in 1098, this medieval abbess was also a writer, composer, and philosopher – and she casually dabbled in medicine. She grew “cannabus” in her herb garden and devoted an entire chapter of her extensive medical record, titled “Physica,” to weed.
