Valerian Root (organic) — 2 oz

Organic Valerian Root is a cut bulk herb from Valeriana officinalis, a traditional botanical known for its strong, earthy aroma and bittersweet taste. The roots are carefully dried after harvest, which helps bring out valerian’s naturally distinct scent.

Valerian root is commonly used in bedtime tea blends, sleep pillows, foot soaks, baths, ointments, skincare products, and other home apothecary recipes. It can also be used in soups, hot beverages, and custom herbal blends where a bold, earthy root note is desired.

Because valerian has a strong natural aroma, a little can go a long way in tea blends and DIY recipes.
