When I am making fresh herb tinctures I do not wash my herbs. I grow them myself and I never use any chemicals on my property. I also do not have a dog or any animal that would frequent my herbs. If they have dirt on them (which very rarely happens), I will dust them off best I can. I usually only harvest the top 1/3 of a plant so the parts I use are rarely close to the ground. The exception would be roots. I definitely scrub roots very well. Hope that helps!
Nice to see your son, he is adorable. Thanks for your great tips on your friend Rosemary ☺️. Have a great day.
Thank you and you too!

I am new to herbs when harvesting from outdoors do you wash the herbs before drying or infusing? Or how do you clean them?

Are u using dried or fresh rosemary in these two jars?
I used fresh but dry would work too.
