So this has got to be one of the more esoteric Impedimenta offerings: false unicorn root, anyone? I bought a bunch of bulk herbs awhile back to make my own lactation support tea, since we spend a small fortune on Traditional Medicinals Mother's Milk tea bags. I'm not really a tea person, though, and after a couple of weeks of mixing the herbs and infusing them in the tea ball for the different times that are supposed to be most beneficial for each herb I thought, to heck with this, and broke out a new box of Mother's Milk.
Offered to the online mom's group. So far no takers. I think it's because I'm specifying that you must take all of them; last time I offered herbs, it took a couple of weeks to get rid of them because someone wanted the raspberry leaf but not the stinging nettle, someone else could use the licorice bark, etc. etc. No way am I dealing with the emails and dropoff arrangements to find homes for a dozen different herbs again. Not to mention what our mail delivery person must have thought, stopping by our mail box (I often stick stuff in there for people to pick up, so they don't have to deal with our dog) to drop the mail only to find a baggie of mysterious shredded green leafy substance. Suuuuure it's just milk thistle....
