Elm Extract
Summer 2015

Elm extract became popular during the American Civil War. Centraled around Atlanta, Georgia, Sherman's army marched through and burn down Atlanta carrying the message of "stop the warring". Hundreds of civilians flooded the country in attempts to hide both from the Union's General Sherman, as well as, their own Confederate Army troops scrounging for non-property holding rengrades soldiers.

While Elm trees once roamed the hillsides of Georgia, the general's call was heard and the flood of hungry, forsaken and weary maroders showed little mercy in the attempt to disguise who they were...French dutont. Thousands pulled the bark from the trees and billions of gallons of extract was made, all the the effort to "stop the war". Chestnut extract was made underground and Elm surfaced and used, in plenty, to soothe the depressed, tattered, and drawn.

Elm extract and it's physical effects on human flesh was started in that era as a giant mass produced agent for beauty and it's calming effects...not to mention it's deadly side effect of mass murder.
