Garden Grown: harvest from the backyard of our local herb teachers, dried 2021, organic practices (not certified)

Herb Pocket workers grow plants without herbicides, pesticides, insecticides, fungicides, etc. That’s better than “certified organic.”  When we harvest herbs it’s at the right time of day and at the right time of year for the best medicine. As we harvest we notice and discard rusted leaves, grass pieces, bugs, and yellowed leaves. We harvest (usually within a few minutes) and immediately take the plants inside where, if needed, they are washed and dried as quickly as possible. We do not use a steam application to kill bugs on freshly harvested plants. Our herbs dry in a dark room until they are placed in a paper sack for storage, also in a dark room. If a tincture is being made from the dried plant, it has been made within 6 weeks (usually less) of harvest. If a tincture is made from the fresh plant, it is made within 48 hours of harvest. All plants and plant medicine are kept in the dark as much as possible during and after processing. We pick every flower and leaf. We give thanks to the plants. We pour our heart and soul into providing a top quality product because we expect the plants to be very good at supporting normal body function.

 

Alfalfa is an excellent nutritive herb loaded with A, D, E, K, and loads of trace minerals.
