Organically cultivated Stellaria media infused in organic cold-pressed sunflower seed oil.
Chickweed was praised by most medieval herbalists as an excellent anti-inflammatory medicinal herb. It is said to have been taken to North America by the Puritan immigrants.
Chickweed poultices are used traditionally in anti-itching creams by herbalists for it's cooling, soothing properties.
Mrs Grieve says, "The Chickweed is also an instance of what is termed the 'Sleep of Plants,' for every night the leaves approach each other, so that their upper surfaces fold over the tender buds of the new shoots, and the uppermost pair but one of the leaves at the end of the stalk are furnished with longer leafstalks than the others, so that they can close upon the terminating pair and protect the tip of the shoot." - this behaviour echoes the gentle protective nature of this lovely herbal ally beautifully!
