Chickweed

Another humble little weed that is a star. When my children were babies, i would always make wonderful salads, mainly out of weeds gathered from my unruly garden and chickweed was always one of the ingredients. It's great on sandwiches with vegemite etc. It loves to grow in damp shady places.
It is packed with silica, minerals, vitamins a, b and c. Saponins (itch-relieving compounds) and fatty acids.
It's brilliant for the itch of eczema or dermatitis.
Traditionally it has been used for cleansing tonics, cystitis, rheumatic joints, boils and abscesses.
