Description

The plantain is a very common spontaneous perennial plant and considered by most as a weed. It is very common along the edges of meadows and paths in the countryside, on the hills and in the mountains.

In the Marche region it is called rabbit ears because of its leaves, which were given to rabbits both as food and as a natural remedy for their health.

The plant is edible and can be used, both fresh and dried, also for human consumption. In herbal medicine, herbal teas and syrups based on plantain are very common, used above all during the cold season.

Like all the plants we grow, we do not use any type of chemical product (pesticides, herbicides, fertilizers, etc.) for the cultivation of Plantain. The plant is grown naturally, on our land in the open countryside, in the Fermo area (Italy).

The harvesting of the Plantain leaves takes place by hand, in the period from April to July. The leaves are then dried at low temperatures (<43°).

In addition to its purely ornamental function, the elderberry is also widely used as a food and in the herbal field. The fruits are excellent eaten fresh, or dried, or for the production of jams. While the dried flowers can be used for the preparation of herbal teas .

Our company has been cultivating Sambucus nigra plants for many years, from which we collect the flowers by hand during the spring season. The plants are grown in an absolutely natural way, without the aid of chemicals such as pesticides, herbicides or chemical fertilizers.

The genus Thymus belongs to the Labiateae family and includes about 350 species of plants including the common thyme (Thymus vulgaris) native to the Western Mediterranean.

Thyme is a plant that we have been growing for several years on our land located in the countryside of Fermo, in Italy. The cultivation is 100% natural, without the use of chemicals that can be harmful to people or the environment, such as pesticides, herbicides or chemical fertilizers.

The collection of the flowering tops and leaves takes place through the mowing of the flowering plant, from April to the whole summer period. The plant is then dried in the classic way (bunches hung upside down), or through the use of special tunnels with controlled temperatures and ventilation. This allows us to dry at low temperatures (<43°), so as not to alter the aroma and properties of the plant.

Finally the Thyme is shredded and packaged. The herbal tea is ready to be enjoyed hot or warm. We recommend hot thyme herbal tea especially in the cold period, excellent especially in association with plants such as plantain, mint, licorice and elderberry.

Curiosity

Aloe has been widely used in many parts of the world for cosmetic and medicinal purposes for thousands of years.

The first evidence of the use of Aloe comes from ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia , where it was called " the plant of immortality ", in fact also used in the mixtures used for mummification (probably due to its natural antioxidant effect).

We then move on to Hippocrates (460-337 BC), father of modern medicine. In numerous medical books he praises his healing properties.

Discoride (20-70 AD) talks about it in "De materia medica", listing the properties of Aloe as healing, anti-inflammatory and useful in skin infections.

Pliny the Elder , in the treatise "Historia Naturalis", describes the therapeutic properties of Aloe .

It is also mentioned in various passages of the Bible : in the Book of Numbers, in the Song of Songs and in the Gospel of St. John (19.3) as a component of mixture used to anoint the body of Jesus after the descent from the cross.

The Tibetan medicine compared to the Ayurvedic they still use today for their preparations.

The Templars used aloe as an ingredient in a special drink they called " Jerusalem Elixir ".

In the Middle Ages and the Renaissance the medicinal use of aloe spread to the northern regions of Europe.

Christopher Columbus , who went down in history as "the explorer of the New World" in one of his writings declares that four plants are indispensable for man: wheat, vine, olive and aloe. The first nourishes, the second rejoices, the third gives harmony and the fourth gives health.

As you can see, the relationship between Aloe and human being is rooted in the mists of time and is not the latest news of the moment.
