Grow a Row | Seed Banking for HWB
HWB has been encouraging folks to grow a row for their local chapters since 1999. Whether you are an herbal school, herb farmer, or individual with an herb garden, you can grow a row! Grow a row can not only get herbs to free clinics and community education programs but also get seeds into the system so others can grow their own. A few plants Lunar Hollow might be growing or foraging from the land includes:
Boneset
Blue vervain Mullein Self Heal Elecampane Swamp milkweed Common milkweed Echinacea Lambs Ear White Horehound Yarrow Pepicha Epazote Fennel Dill |
Spearmint
Hairy Wood Mint Hairy Mountain Mint Huacatay Moldavian Dragonhead Balm Chamomile White Sage Prairie Sage Wormwood Goldenrod Nettles Cottonwood bud Cramp bark Cherry bark |
Tulsi
Catnip Raspberry leaf Mugwort St. John's Wort Cleavers Ground Ivy Peppermint Monarda Mountain Mint Skullcap Lobelia Agrimony |
Thyme
Black horehound Perilla Calendula Basil Passionflower Lemongrass Safflower Hibiscus Pine Spruce Sweetgrass Marhsmallow Mexican Tarragon And more! |
Some plants are grown to share, some for seed, some for educational purposes, and some to preserve. Crops vary year to year, and we plant and grown in a permaculture food forest system of perennials and annuals in no dig beds and surrounding annual foods.
Lunar Hollow is also a UpS Botanical Sanctuary where we grow at risk medicinal plants, not to harvest, but to grow and develop in a conservation model.
