My "green experiment" has nothing to do with the ever popular "green movement" but, instead, relates to my test batch of Chickweed Soap. Who knew that this common plant was a treasure trove of vitamins and a balm for a variety of sensitive skin ailments?! Chickweed has been used as a salad herb and is nearly evergreen. I picked an armload of it on Monday and allowed it to wilt for a few days. A portion of the bounty found its way into the small test batch of soap today. The remaining plants will be used to make an infused olive oil which will, in turn, be the main ingredient in a salve.
