Hi Eve,
Happy to read about your respect for the European tradition. My great-great-grandmother was a midwife and herbalist, like your grandmother, and it's amazing how much my mother still knew about herbs, especially the ones that help women's hormonal processes.
About Beremeal, it's easy to find now, at www.realfoods.co.uk. It's so exciting: it's a landrace, and realfoods advertise it as a "genetically pure" crop! This is one fine ingredient for a herbalist to use with consistent results over the years.
