I thought that with summer almost here I'd share this information for anyone that may not know about this beneficial "weed." Plantain is a plant that is considered a nuisance. You can find it almost everywhere, probably right out in your yard. The leaves of the plant are wonderful for bug bites, stings, rashes, and many other things. For stings you can just take the leaf, chew it up, and use it as a poultice for the sting or bite. It really does work. When we get more in the yard I will harvest and infuse some oil for making personal use products. Hope this is beneficial to someone. Here's a link with more info.
