First year mullein leaves, sustainability harvested in the spring in northern Illinois. Can make tea, tincture, or smoked for lung health.
Medicinal herb: Mullein is an expectorant, which means it helps the body expel excess mucus, usually by helping make your coughs more productive, to bring up mucus that may be settling in the chest or in the throat. It is also a demulcent. Studies show that demulcents create a soothing anti-inflammatory coating over mucous membranes. Used as a tobacco substitute, offers a subtle calming and sedative smoke.
Will send with unbleached tea bags.
We call ourselves “productive hikers” and also have a passion for mycology. We are city dwellers with a self sustainable lifestyle that travel throughout Illinois to forage locally. We have generational eduction of foraging in Illinois for over 30 years. We brew our own beer, cultivate our own produce, and filter and create our own mineral water to reduce waste products leaving less of a carbon footprint. We are musicians that create house music (Dance Loud) and renovate homes with repurposed materials. We love our land!
