Gathering plant materials from the garden...

Lavender, thyme, sage and rosemary...

The potting shed is home to bundles of plant materials to use in salves, dried arrangements, teas, etc. The season of gathering passes quickly, or at least, it feels that way here. A few of the plants grown here are suggested for use in making a garland, as listed in the information below. Garlands are one way to decorate your table for a gathering with fresh or dried plant material.

Herbal Garlands


Garlands aren’t just for looks: they can have purpose too! Mix flowers with herbs like calendula, chamomile, lavender, rosemary, or thyme for a healing twist. These bring color and texture while offering benefits like calming scents or antibacterial properties.

Here are a few healing herbs that will make great additions to your garland.

Lavender – Known for its calming, floral scent, reducing stress and promoting restful sleep

Rosemary – Piney-scented herb for mental clarity and focus, to boost memory and concentration

Thyme – Uplifting and purifying, to freshen the air

Sage – For cleansing spaces, clearing negative energy, protective and purifying
