Question

I am teaching a kids summer camp about Native American food and tradtions. And one of the things that they are going to do is make wild peppermint tea. I want to know where the best place is to buy peppermint leaves for the cheapest? thankyou for your help!!!!

Answer 1

Depends on where you are.

Out here on the west coast, Safeway or other grocery stores carry peppermint in the produce section.

Answer 2

i think you should search for it in the woods or something (honestly) thats how the native americans did it... it would be fun to do.

Answer 3

Go to any good "health food" store.  Wild Oats, etc....whatever you have near you.
