My husband and I keep our jar of Catskills Comfrey on the kitchen table to soothe the side effects of active lives - arthritis, old injuries, creaky joints, the general aches and pains that come with being seventy plus years old. This is a pure, smooth, sweet smelling compound without synthetic chemical additives that works on hands, knees, shoulders, whatever to relieve pain and reduce swelling - we love it and use it on a daily basis. It also comes beautifully packaged and carefully wrapped, making it a pleasant experience all around to receive and use; we look forward to trying the rest of your skincare products. And having grown comfrey ourselves on a small basis, we appreciate what it takes to produce it in quantity. Thank you, Catskills friends, for your hard work and creativity!
