Finding Reliable sources for Purchasing Dried Herbs

[Teresa HalldorsonStudent]

I am in search of some good places to purchase Grindelia, anyone have any recommendations.  This herb has been difficult for me to find from places that I know as being trustworthy.

 

Thank you

Grindelia (Gumweed) is not popular with herb companies because it’s a really oily, sticky mess to process. If you grind it in a big commercial grinder, you’d spend half a day disassembling and cleaning that grinder.

We sell the tincture because we’re crazy. :0)

It’s a really easy plant to grow on your own as well.

Don't use herbs or combine herbs with medications or use them during lactation or pregnancy without talking with your healthcare provider.

This is the wrong time of year but grindelia would be a very easy herb to wildcraft. I see it growing all over, so it’s probably not one that I would personally bother to cultivate (but that’s just me).
