Soothing and sumptuous loose leaf herbal tea blends to sip on any time of the day. These are exceptionally high quality tea blends that showcase the medicine and flavors of each season in every cup.
These special tea blends are only available through the Flora Farm CSA.
Wild Rose Hydrosol & Essential Oil
Explore the therapeutic benefits of hydrosol & essential oil blends through a different distillation each season. We source the waters of our distillations from rivers around the Peninsula for distillates that sing with the Land.
The medicinal quality of the wild rose is unmatched by any cultivated variety. Each flower of the wild rose holds but 5 petals, delicate & precious, harvesting these petals is a labor of love.
A traditional remedy for all manner of skin complaints, rose is a cool breeze on heated & inflamed skin & tissue. Rose has a soft & calming influence upon the nervous system. She uplifts our mood, balances our emotions & invites us to enjoy the subtle sweetness of an open heart.
Here at Flora Farm, we distill each plant in small batches with care in our beloved copper alembic still. Hydrostillations purify and condense both the water soluble and oil soluble constituents of a plant into an easy to use and highly therapeutic form.
