Our family's "go to" for the past decade, whether a scratch, dry cracked skin, scrape, eczema, rash, insect sting, minor cut, or general itch. The kids call it "green medicine" and it is pretty amazing stuff. This salve is made from comfrey root and leaves, calendula flowers, olive oil, bees wax, and lavender. I concentrate the comfrey and calendula into the olive oil (which takes some days on very low heat) and then process the reminder into a salve. It has out-performed prescription cortizone or other OTC ointments on multiple occasions.

Please expect natural variations in all our products. We are not a factory, we may package something different one time than another because of what we have available. We do our best to produce the highest possible quality products. This does not mean there will never be a lump in the yarn (because I hit a squib while spinning, though I try to get all those out), or a little vegetable matter, or hand written labels if we were out of printer ink, or recycled packaging for shipping. We are sustainably minded and do our best. If you are really dis-satisfied with a product, please let us know and we will do our best to give store credit or replace the item as needed.
