Flax seeds (linseed)

Flaxseeds are well known for their health benefits and are a staple in any and every health food store. The flaxseed carried in supermarkets is typically processed for human consumption. These raw seeds will help you grow your own flaxseed plants.
 
Flax is an herbaceous plant that performs 3 duties. It's harvested for its healthy seeds which can be consumed or ground up and used to make linseed oil. When grown as a flower, the blooms add beautiful colors to any flower bed or garden. After it has dried and the seeds have been harvested, the plant stems and twigs act as a textile medium. The stalks can be broken up and made to use of paper. If you have ever bought anything or received anything made of linen....you've had a chance to experience flax fibers at their best! Numerous items can be made from linen. Anything from napkins, to dish towels to bags, etc. It's a perennial so plant it once, and you will have access to fresh flax every year.
