White Sage is known to have antimicrobial and antibacterial properties, so many people burn it in their homes to purify the air and combat dust, dander, and pollution. It is believed that burning sage, or "smudging" dispels negative energy. This listing is for ONE (1) California White Sage bundle, approximately 4" long. **This California White Sage is grown and harvested specifically for the purpose of creating sage bundles, so it does not contribute to the decline of White Sage in the wild.**
