For centuries the Elder tree has been the stuff of legends. Used by Magicians to make wands, including no other than Harry Potter. A sprig of Elder outside your front door was used to ward off evil. Elder was never used as firewood. It was believed that burning it would bring death and disaster and raise the Devil. And anyone foolish enough to sleep under the Elder risked a one-way ticket to the Underworld. Today we use the Elderflowers to make our sparkling Elderflower Wine.
