Jarring the Wooly Mint

Today is for stripping the leaves off the dried herbs that have been hanging in our little north room. They’ll be jarred up and labeled to be enjoyed as food and Medicine in the months ahead. This is really what so much of August (September in October too!) is about: Preparing for our winter months.

And I’m starting with this - our wonderful Mentha suaveolens, often referred to as apple mint, but before I knew which mint it was I called it woolly meant, and others do too.

Peace. 🕊
