Plantain, Herbal tea 50-500g and 1kg

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°).

Finally they are shredded and bagged. The Plantain herbal tea is now ready to be enjoyed alone, or in combination with other of our herbal teas.
