Wildcrafted NZ is all about slow living. I will not always have everything available due to seasonal variations in availability of the herbs I use. And, due to our limited climate in our part of the world, we cannot grow everything here in New Zealand. I will always do my best to ensure that the herbs I offer are the very best in quality.
If you have a special blend request or questions, please let me know by sending me an EMAIL.

Folklore
Folklore of Elecampane Root:
The herb has a strong connection to Helen of Troy from Greek mythology. Before Linnaeus renamed the plant, it was known as “Enula campana” or Helen of the plains. It is said that elecampane grew where Helen’s tears fell across the plains, as she was torn away from her home in Sparta.
Elecampane root has been used in traditional European herbalism since the time of ancient Greece for its beneficial properties. It is also is said to enhance psychic abilities and is one part of a nine-herb bath blend that is said to impart protection from witches.
