At SunRoot Farm we grow a range of culinary and medicinal herbs, including the following value-added herbal products. All herbs are organically grown and/ or ethically wildcrafted from the farm.

Flower essences-

Flowers are known for their ability to soothe and delight. Flower essences help to heal the emotional parts of ourselves, the emotional components of disease and bodily problems. They act as catalysts to awaken and strengthen our own abilities to be well, physically and mentally. They can also facilitate people healing themselves and understanding their purpose and direction in life. They are safe for children and animals.

Tea mixes-

Herbal teas can make a delicious addition to everyday life. They are not only medicines or alternatives to coffee, but can in their own right make excellent teas. Herbal tea combinations will combine safe herbs to soothe common ailments, including problems with digestion, reproductive issues, stress, and skin. 

Salves-

Salves are semi-solid preparations that can be applied to the skin. Salves are made with olive/almond oil infused with herbs and beeswax. They are used for all skin conditions, including burns, rashes, exzema, stings, wounds, etc.
