I have over the years found instructions to make things, particularly with herbs, requiring beeswax. But I never have had any beeswax.
This week I found a tub of beeswax (the beeswax looks like lentils!). This was at Alara's Health Food store in Marchmont Street, London, WC1.
Marchmont is a wonderful street - the opposite of a cloned high street - and just round the corner from Russell Square tube station in central London!
I hope I have enough chickweed this year. I managed almost to get rid of it as a weed when I found out it was my herbalist's favourite herb, and very good for the skin. So I have been encouraging it ever since but it has not been keen to make a come-back in my garden! I will make some skin balm if I can.
My herbalist - Gail Farrow - is based in Walthamstow lindens@btinternnet.com 07815 168410
