Mugwort Oil	1oz $6	2oz $9	4oz $16

Mugwort (Artemesia vulgaris) leaves are hand harvested from our gardens in the late spring and infused in Greek extra-virgin olive oil.

Mugwort, also known as Cronewort, has a long history of healing and magical uses. The infused oil can be used as a massage oil to increase circulation. In the Middle Ages, there were many superstitions connected with Mugwort –it was rumored to preserve the traveler from fatigue, sunstroke and evil spirits. It was believed that John the Baptist wore a girdle of Mugwort in the wilderness for protection. Mugwort oil can be used as an anointing oil for its connection to Artemis and the lunar cycles or as a culinary oil (see recipe below).

Try this delicious recipe using Mugwort oil: Broil a piece of whole wheat sourdough bread. Spread goat cheese and drizzle with Mugwort oil. Optional: add sliced basil or roasted red peppers. Yum!

Please store your oils in a cool dry place or in the refrigerator and use within one year. If stored in the fridge, the oil will solidify. Bring to room temperature before using.
