really impressed at the set up that Jersey H**p have put in place and their determination during what was a ridiculously arduous process getting their business off the ground (literally).

We've just been up to say hello to our fellow horticultural adventurers and this is a photo of happy little h**p plants being grown for seed in Jersey. A long time coming but so nice to see it return to our sunny little Island. It used to be produced by the ship load (literally) at Les Quennevais - that name comes the old French for h**p (canevas) - and was used to make rope for the local ship building industry.

would anyone like some epazote? we have a few spare plants if you're interested. Dysphania ambrosioides to be specific. The Mexican Bean Herb to it's mates - who no doubt enjoy the fresh air and silence that follows a bean dish with epazote in it. Good with fish too.

A is for....Ashwagandha - this is one of our absolute favourites. Excellent for Thyroid particularly it balances your hormones, excellent for stress and anxiety relief, balances your bold sugar levels, helps with memory and muscle strength. Truly one of the best herbs to include in your diet!

See below lots of background from Dr Axe.

Ashwagandha is an adaptogenic herb popular in Ayurvedic medicine. Ashwagandha benefits help lowers cortisol, balance thyroid hormones, combat stress and depression, and even build muscle. Find out how much you should potentially use.

At Pontus we are passionate about plants, particularly those with healing properties. We also love natural medicines and particularly want to grow plants that have been used for millennia to cure all sorts of ailments, long before pharmaceutical companies started to debunk anything that they couldn't patent! So alphabetically, we will start to post here, some of our favourites, their history and many holistic uses - we hope that you will both learn and enjoy! We would love to know some of your favourite natural remedies also!
This is the way forward folks!

these little monsters germinated in three days! definitely sowing more...

The green fronds of agretti were once sought across Europe to be reduced to ashes for use in making glass. These days, the verdant Italian plant is once more in demand – in a somewhat less well-cooked state – to feature on British dinner plates.

we are launching a new brand for Jersey chefs, brewers, herbalists and anyone else keento try new flavours and new foods, all grown without chemicals and in a way that regenerates our most precious asset - the soil.

‘Jersey Botanical Supplies’ builds on our research for the Botanic Garden of Jersey (yes, that was us) and we have already started sowing seeds.

Let us know if you are looking for something and perhaps we can grow it for you.

Spread the word and watch this space for news of herbs and spices new to the UK.
