We found out from the participants of Porumbenii Mari that there grow many valuable herbs in their neighbourhood.

We also talked about their use. As a novelty it turned out that fever is treated with horseradish leaves, while liver diseases are treated with “kulman tea” based on sticklewort. Thank you for the useful information!

The second meeting took place in Tăureni. The members of the community talked about typical herbs, among them about the very rare lavender grown around the village.

It is used by a few residents use dor soap or other home-made products. Another rife herb is the arnica and the interesting comfrey, whose roots are used also in firewater. The member of the community were very enthusiastic, they really want to learn.
Thank them for having participated!

The project and its aims have been presented at a meeting with local people from Crăciunel. We offered and received a lot of new information.

Around the village there are many herbs to be found. Local people know them and they are ready to learn about their use, to widen their knowledge.
