Every bag supports small-scale regenerative growers and the renewal of our soil, communities, and connection to the earth.
Marshmallow (Althaea officinalis) has been used since ancient times in Greek, Roman, and Middle Eastern medicine for its soothing, moistening, and restorative properties. The whole plant was valued as an emollient — to cool, soften, and heal irritated tissues, both internally and externally. Its high mucilage content made it a cornerstone remedy for inflammation of the digestive, respiratory, and urinary tracts, as well as for burns and wounds.
Leaf (Folia)
Marshmallow Leaf was favored in European and Middle Eastern traditions as a lighter, airier version of the root — used in teas for coughs, bronchitis, and urinary discomfort. It was also used as a cooling compress or poultice for inflamed eyes, wounds, and insect bites.
Current Uses:
-
Respiratory Support: Eases irritation in the lungs and throat; beneficial in dry coughs and mild bronchial inflammation.
-
Urinary & Reproductive Health: Soothes mucosal inflammation in bladder infections or urinary irritation.

Every bag supports small-scale regenerative growers and the renewal of our soil, communities, and connection to the earth.
Blood Purifier:
Burdock has been traditionally used as a blood purifier due to its ability to detoxify the blood and promote the elimination of toxins through the skin and urinary system. In both Western herbalism and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), it is commonly used to treat skin disorders and improve overall blood circulation.
Skin Health:
Burdock has long been valued for its role in treating skin conditions like eczema, acne, psoriasis, and boils. Its anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties make it a popular remedy for clearing up chronic skin problems by addressing internal imbalances and promoting detoxification through the skin.
Liver and Digestive Health:
Burdock root is used as a liver tonic, supporting liver function and improving the body’s natural detoxification processes. In Ayurveda and Western herbalism, it is used to promote digestion, relieve indigestion, and support a healthy balance of gut flora due to its high content of inulin, a prebiotic fiber.
Diuretic:
Burdock has traditionally been used as a diuretic, encouraging the excretion of excess water and toxins through the urine. This makes it effective in treating fluid retention, kidney stones, and urinary tract infections.
Anti-inflammatory:
Due to its potent anti-inflammatory properties, Burdock is used to treat conditions like arthritis and rheumatism, particularly in cases where inflammation causes joint pain and stiffness.
