Goldenrod Tincture: A Sinus Formula for Allergies, Colds, and Flu
This goldenrod tincture blend is helpful as an internal remedy for sinus congestion due to seasonal allergies, head colds, sinus infections, or flu. It is very drying and decongesting, and therefore isn’t the best remedy for the beginning stages of a cold when runny mucus can actually help expel pesky viruses. Instead, use it during the latter stages of an infection when the mucus is thick and yellow-green in color. #herbalism #herbalmedicine #foraging #goldenrod #naturalremedies

Goldenrod Tea: An Herbal Blend for Urinary Tract Infections
Need to get your urinary tract back on track? Goldenrod tea is helpful for addressing the symptoms and root cause (primarily bacterial infection) of urinary tract infections (UTIs). The herbs in this formula soothe inflamed urinary mucosal membranes through their demulcent, astringent, and anti-inflammatory actions. They are also antimicrobial as well as diuretic—they help flush out bacteria by promoting urination. #herbalism #herbalmedicine #foraging #goldenrod #naturalremedies

Goldenrod is imbued with a decided botanical exceptionalism—heralding primarily from America, where it has been employed for centuries as an herbal medicine, dye plant, and beverage tea. Although most goldenrod species are native to North America, a few species are native to Eurasia and South America. #herbalism #herbalmedicine #foraging #goldenrod #naturalremedies

How to Grow Goldenrod
Until recently, North American gardeners scoffed at inviting this “weed” into the tended landscape. Meanwhile, in Europe, goldenrod has received a warm welcome in the garden and has been planted widely for upward of three centuries. #herbalism #herbalmedicine #foraging #goldenrod #naturalremedies
