🌱🫁🌱 Respiratory Herbs Day - down on the farm with our Wild Things 2 students, we had a lot of fun with Marvellous Mullein (Verbascum thapsus) 🌱🫁🌱

🌱🌻🌱 We hung out with the plants and the morethanhuman beings who make their homes around them. We harvested the flowers and leaves to make:

🌱🏵🌱 Mullein leaf glycerite 🌿🏺🌿

We had some helpful young visitors this weekend. Jillian and Jacob came over to Edinburgh Agroecology Coop with Jacob's cousins to help us to pick the abundant Chamomile (Matricaria recutita)

💛💮💛 Little enthusiastic helpers are great for harvesting delicate little flowers and the aroma as we all picked them chilled us all out on a scorching day. The kids carefully placed the harvested flowers on our drying racks where they'll stay until they're perfectly dry 💛💮💛

💤💮💤 We use Chamomile loads in our clinics and it's also a key part of our Night-time Tea mix and Stress Support Blend. You can pick these up from our online shop, at outlets around Edinburgh and from the Lauriston Farm Stall every Thursday 4.30-6pm. Or if you're thinking of visiting us as a volunteer, you can always pick up some herbal remedies then. Volunteer sign up link: https://volunteersignup.org/JTL33 💤💮💤

❤️🍒❤️ Richly ripening rosehips ❤️🍒❤️

Early July and the huge hips are forming on these luscious bushes. The bright busy flowers of Beach Rose 🌹 Rosa rugosa 🌹 give way to considerably larger, juicier fruits than the traditional medicinal species Dog Rose 🌹 Rosa canina 🐕

💚🩺💚 In clinic, we use Rosa canina as it has centuries of medicinal use as an immune supportive plant. We do like to make use of Rosa rugosa at home though. Although it may not (or may) have specific immune supporting qualities, we can deduce from the colour and taste that it is likely high in flavonoids & Vitamin C so a great adjunct to immune support 💚🩺💚
