Early Spring Herb Gathering

The Shepherds purse is ready to be gathered right now in our area.  Some I will dry and with some I will make tinctures.  I love how quickly shepherds purse works to stop a cut from bleeding.  We have used it for years with the animals and for us.
I wrote a bit about Gathering Shepherds Purse in 2007 and am linking that article here, if you have an interest in wildcrafting herbs.
