I don't know how but, wormwood has escaped my view up until this point. I decided to get
dairy goats not long ago and have been up to my ears in
permie threads about worm and parasite control, & on the list of herbal remedies sat wormwood. Prior to this delve into holistic medicine I had no knowledge of the plant other than it's use in absinthe.
I started gathering my ingredients for my all natural dewormer and couldn't get my hands on this illusive plant until I found an herbalist in town. He had so much more than wormwood to offer, (He had wormwood dont worry) he also had KNOWLEDGE!!!
It can be used as an insecticide, for digestive problems and disorders, helps with liver and gallbladder disease, worm infections, can be used topically for bug bites, and so so much more!! Not only all of that, but it is a
perennial that can be grown in zone 7b (where I am)!
Now I cannot stop thinking about wormwood an how to get everything it has to offer out of it for my Homestead and my family!!! If you know something I don't about this incredible plant please clue me in, especially if it has to do with obtaining the plant itself. I have a feeling this may be a little hard to get my hands on. Have a blessed day and wormwood on!
