Organic Calendula Petals & Flower Heads | Calendula officinalis | Skin-Loving Herb for Tea, Salves & Potpourri

Bright, healing, and gently magical, these organic calendula petals bring warmth, wellness, and botanical beauty to every corner of your herbal routine.

Herbal Overview

Calendula (Calendula officinalis), also known as Pot Marigold, is a sun-loving herb beloved for its soothing and skin-repairing properties. Hand-harvested and organically grown in the U.S., our dried calendula petals and flower heads are vibrant in color, soft, and filled with healing potential.

Traditionally used to calm inflammation, promote skin repair, and infuse healing into teas, tinctures, and salves, calendula is one of the most versatile and beautiful herbs you can keep in your herbal cabinet. Its sweet, earthy fragrance makes it a lovely addition to bath rituals, facial steams, and even potpourri blends.

On the farm, calendula has always been a welcome companion. It lines the garden beds like little suns, always reminding us to slow down, breathe deep, and remember that beauty can be healing.

Packaging Details

Our calendula arrives lovingly wrapped in Apothecary Counter Wrap, a resealable inner pouch nestled inside kraft paper, sealed with a brass pin and tied with rustic twine.

This classic, nostalgic packaging style is inspired by old-world stillrooms and country apothecaries. We recommend transferring to a glass jar to keep the color and scent vivid.

Stillroom Notes

Calendula always feels like an old friend—cheerful, dependable, and full of gentle medicine. One afternoon while harvesting, I reached into a patch for a perfect blossom... and a small garter snake, curled up under the petals, nipped me on the hand! It was more of a surprise than a sting, and the snake slithered off while I stood there laughing, the cat equally startled. That’s nature’s way—calm and wild in the same breath.
