Organic Burdock Root – Dried Herbal Tea Cut | Arctium lappa | Wildcrafted Root for Skin & Digestive Wellness

Earthy and grounding, our wildcrafted burdock root is a time-honored herbal ally used in teas, tinctures, and traditional cleansing blends.

Herbal Overview

Burdock Root has been part of herbal traditions for generations, known for its grounding energy, skin-supportive properties, and gentle role in digestive wellness. Also called Greater Burdock or Lappa, this humble root is smooth in flavor and beloved for its versatility.

Ours is wildcrafted with care from nutrient-rich soil in China, then gently dried to preserve its integrity. When steeped as tea, burdock offers a pleasant, earthy flavor that pairs beautifully with dandelion root in classic cleansing blends. It’s also an ideal addition to herbal tinctures, soothing skin salves, and nourishing wellness infusions.

Though modest in appearance, burdock carries a deep history in folk herbalism and remains a trusted favorite for those who honor the slow, steady rhythm of traditional wellness.

Stillroom Notes

Burdock Root is a steady companion here on the farm, especially during seasonal transitions. We often brew it alongside dandelion in early spring, and it finds its way into our skin remedies year-round. This particular batch, wild-gathered from the fields of China, holds the deep, quiet strength that burdock is known for.
