Artemisia Harvest Part 2 May 28

After your Artemisia has flowered or grown to a good height harvest the branches.

Just cut off what you want to harvest.









Place in a warm dry spot or direct sun to dry.












Once dry remove large stems.














Continue to dry if needed. Once very dry put leave powder through a sieve several times to remove the small stems. [Cory saves the stemy leaves for family use]










Measure the powder into small bags for sale at clinic/hospital. Marking bags with name, 3 year expiration and weight of powder.















The bags that we have at this time will hold enough powder to treat an adult for 4 days. Therefore 2 bags will be needed for complete treatment.
