Medicinal kits

Like all our kits, the Médicinales kit features a selection of seeds beautifully packaged in our colorful origami-folded paper. These seeds are relatively easy to approach, so no stress! No complex techniques are required to enjoy the 6 chosen varieties. These plants, with their many properties, are a great base for your medicinal garden and medicine chest. As we're not qualified herbalists ourselves, we don't provide any dosages or preparation methods for the products you'll be able to make. We therefore strongly advise you to seek advice (from more than one source) before embarking on your own preparation adventure!  We'll be happy to answer any questions you may have about growing the following plants.
