--Briar Stevens--
Briar Stevens began making boo boo salve when he was
five. He loved the salve so much he wanted to share it with
anyone and everyone that had a boo boo. He "doctors" on
his three brothers, his parents, grand parents and friends.
He even has used it on our dog.He believes in the fresh
plantain leaves so much he even feed them to a sick mud
turtle that got better.
|
How does Brair make his salve?
|
|
Step One- Ingredients Selection
|
|
The first step to a great salve is the ingredients! Briar knows
that the plantain plant is healing to the skin. It is commonly
refered to as Nature's Bandaide plant. He picks the plantain
that looks healthy and is growing in our garden before its
flowers--goes to seed. Healthy plantain leaves make a healthy
salve.
|
|
|
Step Two- The Infused Oil
|
|
|
The second step is to make an infused Plantain Olive oil.
Briar fills his jar 2/3 of the way full with dry or freshly
wilted plantain leaves. He tops off the jar with pure olive
oil. He then place the jar in a warm water bath for about
three day. He does not want the water to boil. It needs to
stay very warm so that the herb will release there
medicinal properites into the oil. After three day he strains
the oil and platain threw a cloth and saves the super
healing plaintain infused oil. It is now ready to make salve.
|
Step Three- Time to Mix
|
Briar makes his salve in small batches so that he can be sure
the qualilty is just right. He uses his freshly made plantian
infused oil and rich local beeswax to thicken his oil. Brair likes
to add Vitaim E and Rosemary to the salve to give it a longer
shelf life. He warms his oil and adds shredded beeswax.
When it is all melted he then adds his essential oils and
Vitamin E to help preserve the salve. Vitimin E gives it a
longer shelf life.
|
|
|
Step Four- Packaging
|
|
|
Packaging Time!
After the salve mixture is
the right tempature and the
right consistency, Briar will
pour a measured amount
into his tins and jars. He will
put a label on each one. He
also put a safety seal on the
jars and tins so that no one
can open it until you do.
|
|
|
Step Five- Use it!
|
| |
Now the slave is ready to
use! Briar likes to use his
salve on everything to see
how it will work and to see
what it can help. If you have
