Collect and dry swarf
Maybe you still remember your childhood. When picking flowers, the swarf was always present with us in the bouquet. Because it has a hard stem, which can be easily torn off. But next to a beautiful summer bouquet, a delicious tea can be prepared from the swarf and it is suitable for tinctures and ointments.
The swarf belongs to the medicinal herbs and helps, for example, in the case of sniffing, sunburn, digestive problems, wound healing, loss of appetite or flatulence.
