Oil of the Week ::: Marjoram

Joy of the Mountains!
Oh, what a lovely little oil is Sweet Marjoram! You can cook with it ... soothe with it ... bring peace with it ...

But did you know that, added to Frankincense, it becomes a powerful remedy for soreness? Read on!

Also known as “wintersweet” or “joy of the mountains,” Marjoram was known to the Greeks and Romans as a symbol of happiness. Marjoram has been used in culinary dishes, imparting a unique flavor to soups, stews, dressings, and sauces: in Germany, this herb is known as the “Goose Herb” for its traditional use in roasting geese. In modern applications, Marjoram is valued for its calming properties and its positive effect on the nervous system. It also supports both healthy cardiovascular and immune systems.
