St. John's Wort Salve ©Millie Fodor


First time using the crock pot to make a salve and cooking equal parts of dried herbs for 3 hours in olive oil. Things we changed: added more oil because when we put it in the crock pot it barely covered the herbs. We also added 4 pinches dried lavender. In the end we added more beeswax to make it more solid.

We bought all of the dried herbs in this recipe except, of course, for the comfrey which we dried ourselves. Herbs include: St. John's Wort, Calendula, Comfrey leaf and Plantain.
