Few natural ingredient or pharmaceutical preparations are available that can match the effective itch relief of our salve.
Few know of jewel-weed and its remarkable ability to calm itching from insect bites, bee stings, berry or prickly bush
scratches, contact with pine needles, scratches from under brush or other allergic rashes (contact dermatitis). No other salve
can claim the additional benefits of our healing honey and hive ingredients from our own Meadowlake Farm hives. This blending
of herb and hive is no less than divine!

our precious honey salve. Now, we can share this time honored remedy with you in a convenient tin. This salve is certain to
become a regular tag-along in first aid kits, backpacks, and purses, everywhere! Don’t leave home without it! Its properties
are anti-itch, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, naturally antibiotic and pain relieving.
