History of Cornflower
Because the blue color of the cornflower is reminiscent of healthy, clear blue eyes, the cornflower used to be often described for eye problems. In addition, it was used for inflamed mucous membranes, especially in the mouth and pharynx, but also in the gastrointestinal tract.
It is important to store herbs in a dark, dry and well-ventilated place. Moisture is bad for the quality of herbs. If moisture gets to herbs, they can start to mold.
We think it is important that our herbs are harvested in a way that respects nature. This means that nature is not trampled, the animals that live within this nature are not inconvenienced and the harvesting places are not thinned out. Harvest sites must be allowed to settle down. We also take into account protected plant species, which may not be affected.
By sowing and harvesting we support the butterfly and bee population.
A dried herb can be used all year round. Once all moisture has evaporated, there is no longer a chance of mold and rot. This is also the reason why we advise not to pack the herbs in plastic. At high humidity, moisture can get into the plastic and cause mold and rot. Bacteria have free rein when the environment is moist. A properly dried herb normally contains no more than 10% moisture.
Before our herbs are dried, they are cleaned. That is, made free of soil, soil, moss and excess plant parts. This happens immediately after harvesting the plant. Then the drying process can begin.
The flowers should be dried in the dark, while roots dry better in the open air. Each part of the plant has its own preference for a drying process. We take this into account so that we can guarantee the best quality.
