Dandelion Digest week 16

🍂 Dandelions are entering their root season. As autumn sets in, their energy pulls downward, making the roots especially potent for digestion and liver health. Many foragers harvest dandelion roots now to dry for teas, or to prepare tinctures that support wellness through the colder months.

🌼 This Week’s Herb: Boneset

Tall and wild in Wisconsin’s wetlands, boneset is an old ally for fever and flu season. Its bitter teas were traditionally used to ease body aches and support the immune system as autumn chills arrived.

🌟 Featured Product: Hydrating Salve ($20 / 2oz, available on our website)

Infused with dandelion and rosemary to keep skin soft and nourished as the weather cools.

🌿 Side Note: Soothing Salve ($20 / 2oz, available on our website)

Made with burdock and plantain, a calming choice for skin irritation and seasonal dryness.

✨ Did you know? Boneset gets its name from its historical use in treating “breakbone fever,” an old term for severe influenza.

🍂 Until next week, may the shifting season remind you to lean on the herbs that have always grown alongside us.
