Growing catnip is easy and fun. But watch out for the overgrowth! It can take over a garden very quickly.
The good thing is that there are many uses for catnip, including making catnip tea. Catnip tea is believed to help you sleep, relieve stress, settle an upset stomach and ease diarrhea. Of course, the best catnip to use for catnip tea is the organically grown catnip that you have grown in your very own garden!
It is gaining popularity very quickly. Many use it as a natural sleep aid.
It is so popular and so interesting to so many people that you could place your extra catnip in packages and sell it at a local flea market or farmer's market. Natural remedies for everyday problems are very hot right now.
Looking for some tea or seeds to get started? Look at trusty Amazon!
