Over 50 species of juniper grow across the Northern Hemisphere. They are considered by many cultures to be sacred trees and shrubs. Female shrubs produce juniper berries. For incense use, the wood, berries, and dried tips are used. In Himalayan cultures, juniper is used for cleansing during spiritual rituals. Native Americans used juniper incense to greet guests and to support the peyote ceremony. Juniper berry powder (Juniperus communis) is a great way to utilize this ancient plant.
