Lavender Dandelion Salve
Lavender Dandelion Salve
New to the farm in 2024 is our Lavender Dandelion Salve.
Every yard has them and no yard wants them! This beautiful, yellow flower is really a weed. (But we all knew that.) Dandelions are a perennial weed that produces flowers and are easily recognizable. Did you know the dandelion plant is totally edible, every part! It can be consumed in salads, teas, and is an ingredient in various health products.
While the majority of the population considers this weed a nuisance, it can offer exceptional nutritional value. According to several studies, dandelions contain powerful antioxidants and can aid in lowering blood pressure, controlling blood sugar levels, arthritis pain, and helping to fight inflammation. Dandelion greens contain vitamins, A, C, E, K and small amounts of B. Other studies suggest dandelion tinctures can reduce oxidative stress! What better product to add to our lavender products. Try our new Lavender Dandelion Salve!
As with all products, check with your physician before ingesting dandelions as there are some health issues which may react adversely from ingesting or topically using dandelions.
