Our latest project is Green Salve, similar to Eden Salve. It is made from an organic mixture of herbs: plantain leaf, calendula flower, comfrey leaf, yarrow flower, rosemary leaf, echinacea leaf, and echinacea root., organic beeswax, olive oil, and a couple drops of vitamin E for a preservative. It stays good for five years.
Green Salve is used for insect bites and itchies of many kinds.
Fill a mason jar 2/3 full of herbs, fill one inch from the top with oil and keep warm in crock pot for three days.
Stain through cheesecloth and add beeswax and vitamin E to herb-infused oil.
Herb-infused oil without beeswax makes an excellent massage oil.

We have prepared a batch to sell at Pinecraft Days this weekend, along with Erica's homemade lotion.
Looks nice, Erica and Mary Ann! Was it a good seller?
