Urban Moonshine Throat Spray is back by popular de

Urban Moonshine Throat Spray is back by popular demand! Formulated with Sage, Spilanthes, Usnea, and Licorice, this throat spray has a broad spectrum impact on pain, microbial growth, inflammation, and respiratory health. The herbs contained provide benefits on contact and when swallowed.
Sage, with its soothing combination of tannins and aromatic oils is a traditional go-to for throat pain and clearing mucus, with recent studies confirming its numbing, antibacterial, and expectorant actions. One of sage’s terpenes, 1,8-Cineole, has been shown to assist with lung function in all herbs in which it is found, including eucalyptus, rosemary, cardamom, and sage.
Spilanthes, also known as toothache plant, is best known for its numbing and anti-inflammatory qualities, but can also assist with breaking fevers, and boasts a large array of antimicrobial, antibacterial, and antimicrobial compounds. These properties help to numb and moisten a dry throat while also working against infection.
Usnea, aka Old Man’s Beard Lichen is another amazing herb with these abilities, shown to be effective against strains of both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria as well as multiple strains of fungi. Usnea also has helpful application in assisting with clearing excess mucus and as an expectorant.
Licorice comes in as the lubrication of this blend, reestablishing mucus membranes and easing dry throat, while also bringing topical anti-inflammatory action to assist swelling. Licorice is also a powerful immune support herb, well suited to support the adrenal system in mounting the anti-inflammatory action on a system level.
For greater relief, try pairing with Urban Moonshine’s Clear Chest with Elecampane, Thyme, Licorice, and Lobelia in a honey lemon base.

This week's staff pick is from Torsten, Wellness M

This week's staff pick is from Torsten, Wellness Manager. "Maine Medicinals Relax and Restore is my staff pick because it helps me relax my mind and body throughout my busy schedule. Personally, I prefer herbal options for stress that can be taken any time of day since mornings can be the most challenging part of my day. Each one of these herbs -Skullcap, Passionflower, Tulsi Holy Basil, Lemon Balm, and Schisandra - are ones I love to work with on their own to reduce stress, but having them all in one place is an incredible help on the busiest days when I need them most.
I can attribute the blend's additional ability to help my shoulders and back release tension or soothe a headache to Skullcap, Passionflower, and Tulsi. I can attribute the blend's ability to soothe nausea to Tulsi and Lemon Balm. Schisandra and Tulsi are the two adaptogens in the blend, helping us to balance stress hormones and get out of fight or flight. I usually go with a dropper full, but on harder days I appreciate that the blend is flexible enough to allow me to take 3-5 droppers if needed. One nice thing about it too is that Skullcap, Tulsi, and Schisandra have some cumulative benefits, so I feel like I've gained some more balance from taking it frequently for the last few months."

Ever dreamed of growing your own blue oyster mushr

Ever dreamed of growing your own blue oyster mushrooms? We sure have! North Spore from Portland, ME, has provided us with yet another delightful 'Spray & Grow' Organic Mushroom Growing Kit: Blue Oysters. This beginner-friendly, countertop kit produces a large flush of beautiful light grayish-brown to deep blue-gray mushrooms within 5-20 days and - with proper care and humidity - can yield 2-3 flushes.
Blue Oyster Mushrooms are velvety, savory, mild, and versatile. A crowd-pleasing recipe from North Spore is to chop the oyster mushrooms and sauté them in a heavy pan on medium heat with butter, garlic, and loads of fresh thyme and rosemary (or any other fresh herbs you might happen to have on hand!) Cook until the mushrooms have released their liquid, then continue cooking until that liquid has cooked off and the mushrooms begin to brown. This can take between 20-30 minutes. Deglaze your pan with a splash of white wine, reduce it once more, and finish with a touch of heavy cream. Season generously with salt and enjoy!
An exciting project for kids and grown-ups alike, keep an eye out for North Spore grow kits in our Produce Department and get yours started today!
