"Lazy Herbalist" Harvest Technique!

Here's one of my awesome apprentices, Paul, trying out my "lazy herbalist" method of harvesting ginkgo biloba leaves last week...it's tough work but someone has to do it ;)

Thanks for the great pic, Paul, or is that "pick"? I guess it's both! Ginkgo biloba leaves are best used when they're yellow or yellowing. I dry mine for infusions and use them for oxygenating the whole body, especially the brain and lungs. they also taste good. I sometimes mix them with mullein leaves and hawthorn or elder berries for a fabulous immune strengthening winter infusion!
