For the herbs that are not known and cultivated for non-specific purposes, we often call them weeds and weeds. These small grasses are not as beautiful in appearance as flowers, their functions are not as prominent as forest trees, and their output value is not as good as that of commercial crops. Because of their low profile, people even regard them as the culprit of destroying the landscape of the land. But even the common weeds on the side of the road have a meaning.

Turning around and looking at the ground, the slender and slender ones like rice ears are earthy incense, those who are afraid to touch them are mimosa, and those full of thorns like needles are Xianfeng grass. Only then did I realize that each grass has its own name. And these grasses with names and surnames, whether they are taken internally or externally, all hide the value that my "grass" is inherently useful.

Weeds grow and breed rich biodiversity, allowing all kinds of creatures to depend on one leaf and one flower for their descendants, hiding the warmth of the mother of the earth. In this event, we invite you to collect the weeds with you, learn to slow down and feel the gift of nature, pick up the grass that has not been printed for a long time in the past, let us know it, drink a cup of weeds Tea, taste the hundreds of flavors of the world. -Photo courtesy of [Canopy Life]
