Plantain Salve Kit — With a Touch of Lavender
A home apothecary essential.
Our Plantain Salve Kit was born out of years of working with this resilient, skin-loving plant growing in the cracks of our sidewalks and the corners of our gardens.
Gentle, grounding, and easy to use, plantain leaf has a powerful ability to soothe the skin — making this salve a staple in our herbal first aid kits.
This kit invites you to slow down and craft your own botanical salve while learning how to identify, infuse, and work with plantain leaf in your everyday life. A hint of lavender adds a calming aromatic note, though it's optional depending on your preferences.
