Sweetgrass is an aromatic grass with long, satiny leaves that's considered sacred in many world religions. "Hierochloë" is a combination of a Greek and a Latin word meaning 'Holy Grass" which is another common name for it. It's well known to many Indigenous people in Canada and the United States as a material for baskets, as well as a scent, medicine and smudge. In Northern Europe, sweetgrass is strewn in front of church doors on saints' day to create a pleasant odor in the church. It's also used as a sain within Scottish folk magic practices. As such a widely revered and used sacred plant, sweetgrass is still harvested today, and continues to play and important role in Indigenous and European cultures.
