Where can you pick up a white sage smudge stick in Gainesville Florida?

your local grocery or florist store.... buy your sage fresh, you can generally find all types for cooking in the grocery store and other types at your florist... using floral wire you can make your own smudge stick

I usually do so on a full moon, outside, at night, simply because I feel the sage can use any extra power it can get since its a primary tool in keeping away the negative. I generally have the last of my sage burning as I make my new stick, to offer a ending and a beginning. I say a blessing and a prayer to Hecate (as I'm female) as I create the stick one leaf at a time, layering until I have the length and width I want. Then I wrap it up with smudged floral wire. I pass the entire thing through the smoke of the burning sage 3 times then clip it to my outside altar to sun dry. It takes a few days of drying then it's good to go, however, I live in the desert so you might want to dry it inside in Florida. b Dont make it too thick, depending on humidity you run the risk of the insides rotting instead of drying.
