RE: Natural Medicine of the Alpujarra's- The beautiful and Majestic Olive Tree and The Sweet Sweet Carob
Truly these are some powerful plants! When you say that the trees are over 500 years old it gives me a special feeling of earthy timelessness.
I live with a girl who has both the oil extract and the carob on her shelf in the pantry. Little did I know they both have such a range of medicinal benefits, including preventing cancer.
I can't think of what kind of medicinal plants are close to my home, except for the native New Zealand Kawakawa tree. Kawakawa is a respected spirit in the Maori culture, we make tea out of the leaves which is a cure all.
Your life in the Alpujarra mountains sounds very idyllic :)
I know these elders are amazing and their presence really does have an amazing affect on me, I am kind of surrounded by them and feel so lucky, You should do s post about the Kawakawa tree, I would love to hear more about it xxx
I am going to consult with some druid friends of mine and put together the best post I can :P
I look forward to reading it xxx
