I got a bug bite while working on woodland care BBs. I mashed the poultice with my teeth.
For this badge bit, you will create a plantain leaf poultice.
- Make plantain leaf poultice, with pictures of it being made, and of it being finished.
To document this BB, post pictures or a 2-minute video depicting the following:
- Your plantain leaves being harvested
- Your poultice in mid-preparation
- Your completed poultice
I made plantain poultices! Fresh may be best, but having wanted a plantain poultice several times last year when it wasn’t in season, I’m planning ahead this year.

"[6] Let the people, O God, confess to Thee: let all the people give praise to Thee: [7] The earth hath yielded her fruit. May God, our God bless us, [8] May God bless us: and all the ends of the earth fear Him." (Psalms 66/67)
Here is my submission for the plantain poultice BB:

They say time's the great healer, and that's true. It's just not a very good anaesthetist, is the problem,
