Of course you see the usage in the post…amending the soil.

The first couple harvests I run it I’ve with the mower and collect in the grass catcher bag, dry that and process in a food processor to a smaller size for fertilizing our indoor winter crops and seed starting mixes.

We also make a Comfrey cream, infusing organic coconut oil with comfrey leaves. That infusion is used for sore muscles and to alleviate bruising.
