Juli

09. August 2023



Der Sommer ist bei uns auf dem Hof Hochsaison und im Juli konnten wir dieses Jahr mit der Ernte unserer Hauptpflanze, der Artemisia annua, beginnen. Inzwischen haben wir schon zwei große Ernten der bitteren Pflanze eingefahren, die anschließend in einem neuen Folientunnel, den wir als große Flächentrocknung eingerichtet haben, getrocknet wird. Daneben gibt es natürlich auch eine ganze Menge anderer Teepflanzen für unsere Mischungen der sanften Gärtnerin, die wir nach und nach abernten und trocknen. In diesem Monat waren Teekräuter wie Apfelminze, Malve, Zitronenmelissegriechischer Bergtee, Ringelblume, Kamille, Schafgarbe und Drachenkopf erntereif.

Glücklich sind wir dabei mal wieder über die vielen fleißig helfenden Hände, die uns bei der Arbeit unterstützen. Neben freiwilligen HelferInnen waren das im Juli vor allem auch verschiedene KundInnen, die unsere Kräuter selbst in ihrer Arbeit oder privat verwenden und sich den Ort, wo diese angepflanzt, gepflegt und geerntet werden, aus nächster Nähe anschauen wollten. Neben der willkommenen Unterstützung bei der Arbeit freuen wir uns dabei immer besonders über die Gelegenheit, uns über die Pflanzen auszutauschen und unser Wissen und unsere Erfahrungen weiterzugeben. Die Besuche sind für uns eine echte Bereicherung und machen immer wieder deutlich, wofür und vor allem für wen wir die Arbeit am Hof hier machen!

Erträgliche Temperaturen

Damit unsere Kulturpflanzen, die wir gezielt anbauen und ernten wollen, nicht von den munter sprießenden Beikräutern überall am Hof übermannt werden, wechseln wir das Ernten stetig mit Jäten und Beikraut hacken sowie dem obligatorischen Wässern ab. Nach einem feuchten Frühjahr und Frühsommer, der unseren als Wasserreserve fungierenden See reich gefüllt hat, breitet sich jetzt die übliche Sommerhitze in Südfrankreich und auf dem Hof aus. Im Gegensatz zum vergangenen Jahr mit seiner großen Hitze und Trockenheit ist es dieses Jahr aber noch erträglich und auch wenn der Wasserstand des Sees deutlich abzusinken beginnt, sind wir optimistisch, dass der Vorrat an kühlem Nass über die gesamte Pflanzsaison dieses Jahres reichen wird.

Die neue Kräutermanufaktur

Neben der Arbeit auf dem Feld haben wir uns im vergangenen Monat ganz besonders auf den Bau der neuen Kräutermanufaktur direkt auf dem Hof konzentriert. Dort entsteht ein praktischer Lagerraum, in dem unsere getrockneten Kräuter sicher verstaut werden können, bevor sie in Teemischungen, aber auch in Tinkturen und anderen Produkten Verwendung finden. Außerdem gibt es dort natürlich einen neuen Arbeitsraum, in dem alle Maschinen und sonstigen Materialien, die wir zur Herstellung unserer Produkte brauchen, Platz finden. Wir freuen uns vor allem auf die neue Manufaktur, in der wir sicherlich viele Stunden verbringen und viel Leckeres und Wohltuendes herstellen und vielleicht auch so einiges Neues kreieren werden!

Our product is 100% natural.   Information & Use Please note that, under the EU Novel Food Regulation, Artemisia annua may currently not be sold as a food in the EU. Artemisia annua leaves are excellent for incense burning. For best results, we recommend the following steps: Prepare a fireproof incense bowl by sprinkling a little sand inside. Carefully light an incense charcoal from the side over a flame. Once the spark has traveled about halfway through the charcoal and it starts to glow, place it on the sand in the bowl. Wait until the spark has spread through the entire charcoal. Then sprinkle about three pinches of Artemisia annua leaves on top. Gently waft the rising smoke through the room using a fan or feather. When the herbal scent fades, carefully remove the residue from the charcoal with a knife and add fresh leaves. Ensure good ventilation by opening a window to let the smoke disperse. After burning, extinguish the charcoal with water or let it cool completely before disposing of it. A typical incense session lasts between ten and twenty minutes, depending on the amount used. Enjoy the relaxing and soothing atmosphere created by the incense smoke. Ingredients Annual mugwort leaves (Artemisia annua)*.*from our own cultivation. Storage Store tightly closed in a cool, dry place away from light. Origin Grown in France. Bottled in Germany. Content 100 ml annual mugwort leaves   Artemisia annua: Annual mugwort   Artemisia annua, commonly known as annual mugwort, belongs to the genus Artemisia and the daisy family (Asteraceae). This plant originated in the temperate regions of Asia—especially China—and has since spread to many regions worldwide. The herbaceous, sun-loving plant grows into a large bush in summer, reaching heights of up to 2 m. It features yellow-green, long-stalked leaves and delicate white-to-pink blossoms. Artemisia annua blooms from June to August. This annual plant is known for its distinctive, aromatic scent, often described as fresh and spicy. Its blend of herbal, spicy, and slightly sweet notes comes from the many essential oils found in Artemisia annua. Annual mugwort grows best in temperate to subtropical climates and needs well-draining soil and plenty of sunlight. It can be cultivated in pots or in the garden. For optimal growth, regular watering and weed removal are important. Timely harvesting before flowering and proper cutting are especially important to preserve the plant’s valuable constituents.     A look inside our herbal manufactory   In our organic and Demeter-certified manufactory, we craft high-quality products with great care.

It originally comes from the temperate regions of Asia, particularly China, but is now cultivated in many parts of the world. Annual mugwort is distinguished by its characteristic fragrance, often described as aromatic and refreshing. Its scent combines spicy, herbal, and slightly sweet notes that appeal to many people. The plant grows best in temperate to subtropical climates and prefers well-drained soil and sufficient sunlight. It can be cultivated both in pots and in gardens. Regular watering and removing weeds help ensure optimal development.   Product advice and orders: +49(0)3327 4372 090   Organic Vegetable Glycerin as Extraction Medium Organic glycerin, also known as vegetable glycerol, is a transparent liquid with a viscous consistency and a mild, slightly sweet taste. The professional extraction and processing method ensures an optimal and safe composition for cosmetic and food products. With a high purity of 99% and organic quality derived from vegetable oils, it is an ideal complement for various types of organic products. One biological method of producing glycerin involves using organic flaxseed. Organic vegetable glycerin is obtained through the hydrolysis of vegetable oils and fats. It was reportedly discovered over 200 years ago by the Swedish pharmacist and chemist Scheele during a saponification process using olive oil. In production, oil-rich vegetable fats are mixed under pressure with a strong alkali, separating the glycerin from the fatty acids. Due to its properties similar to alcohol — being soluble in both fats and water — glycerin is ideal for extracting a wide variety of plant compounds. In addition to its preservative qualities, glycerin also has hygroscopic properties and a mild antimicrobial effect. Thanks to its organic quality and proper dosage, organic glycerin can be safely used in food products. Our organic glycerin is made exclusively from certified organic raw materials and is palm-oil free.   Application – Artemisia annua Please note that Artemisia annua may currently not be sold as a food product in the EU according to the Novel Food Regulation. For use as a room aroma. Open the 100 ml Miron violet glass bottle and place the desired number of fragrance sticks into the bottle neck — the number of sticks determines the intensity of the aroma in the room. Ingredients Pure vegetable glycerin from organic flaxseed, purified water, annual mugwort leaves*.*from our own cultivation. Storage Store tightly closed in a cool, dry, and dark place. Keep out of reach of children. Origin Made in Germany.
