July: The Summer Loving Box
“Summer afternoon—summer afternoon; to me those have always been the two most beautiful words in the English language.”

July. Summer vacation, Days at the beach. Camping trips and bonfires. Swimming, picnics and potato salad. Endless days and warm, starry nights. All year long we wait for those lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer.
July's Summer Loving Box will help you make the most of them! Stay cool and refreshed with an iced herbal tea blend or a dandelion shrub. Beat the heat with a lemon balm hydrosol. Soothe sunburned and bug bitten skin with a healing balm. Overdid it at a friend's backyard BBQ? Try some apple blossom elixir. These are just a few items you might find in July's box!

Boxes are offered with sliding scale prices. To learn more about sliding scale pricing, please read this post. But basically, in a nut shell (pun intended!), I invite you to pay one of the reduced fees, if paying the full price would cause you to be less secure in your ability to meet your food, health, housing or essential transport needs. To determine where you fall on the scale when choosing which price to pay, please refer to this infographic created by Alexis J. Cunningfolk (Click image to enlarge).
