June in the Garden

It is a wonderful and busy time out in the garden, so much to harvest, while still planting, and I like to take time to simply sit and be to enjoy the sights and smells. Wild rose has been wafting her exquisite fragrance everywhere reminding me of all that is beautiful in this world.Here are some of the week’s herbal medicines:

    In the jars are: Violet leaf oil,

    Wild rose tincture,

    Black birch leaf and twig tincture,

    Plantain leaf oil, and

Wild rose honey.

    In the baskets are: Violet leaf and stalk,

    Grape leaves and vines, Mullein leaves

    and Honeysuckle blossoms.

It is getting crowded around here because so many of last year’s medicines are still waiting to be decanted! Oh well, so many plants and only so much time, as I like to eat and sleep, too.
