RE: Fennel (Foeniculum vulgare), food and medicine growing in abundance
I love fennel and have one growing in my garden now. I have to go out and start harvesting some of the larger seed heads this week. I am thinking of using a tea made from the seeds to try in my homemade soaps. It should be interesting to see if it holds the scent and anti-bacterial properties. What do you think? Should I give it a try?
By all means try it! It sounds like a great idea and I see no reason for the essential oils to lose their properties. I just wonder why it hasn't been done before!

I am definitely going to give it a try. I picked some seeds yesterday and am even drying some of the fragrant leaves. We shall see.
