Bay Laurel – Issue 72

While it’s cold and blustery here, we are going to head over to the balmier Mediterranean to study one of their wonderful herbs, Bay Laurel. Interestingly, most people know Bay as a necessary spice that is added to many savory dishes. Don’t stop there, Bay Laurel is a fabulous medicinal herb as well!

This month we’ll talk about how versatile she is, with a variety of herbal remedies and a few sweet treats thrown in as well (ever had Bay Laurel Ice Cream?)

Pull those leaves out of the cupboard and get started!
