Bärlauch (Allium ursinum), auch Wilder Knoblauch genannt, ist eines der bekanntesten Wildkräuter im Frühling. Er wächst an schattigen, feuchten Standorten und ist reich an Vitamin C, Mineralstoffen, Allicin und ätherischen Ölen. Bärlauch wirkt entgiftend, entschlackend, stoffwechselanregend, entzündungshemmend und antibakteriell – ideal für Frühjahrskuren und zur Unterstützung von Verdauung, Blutdruck und Cholesterin.
Die frischen Blätter eignen sich perfekt für Pesto, Kräuterbutter, Suppen oder Salate. Auch die Blüten und Knospen sind essbar und lassen sich einlegen oder dekorativ verwenden. Achtung: Verwechslungsgefahr mit giftigen Pflanzen wie Maiglöckchen und Herbstzeitlose – nur sammeln, wenn man sich sicher ist!

Cardboard is cut, the ratcheting of the blade of the cutting machine can be clearly heard with every lever pull down. Cardboard box is laid out, always three parts a front, back and back part. Adhesive tape peeled off to connect the sections. Every move is noticed.

It is a unique moment when you see the first fabric you designed yourself spread out in front of you in all its glory.
But what happens next? Every piece of fabric that is processed in my workshop is first washed in an environmentally friendly way and then dried in the fresh air. After this step, the ironing takes place and then you can get started.
