Ashwgandha Root, organic

Ashwagandha is native to India and is also known as Indian ginseng or winter cherry. The dried roots, usually powdered, can be decocted, used nutrively in shakes and baked goods, or tinctured. To preserve potency, the root pieces can be ground at time of need in a coffee grinder.

Despite being grown as an annual in our climate, ashwagandha produces huge, beautiful roots in one growing season and seems to favor our raised bed system. Very popular in Ayurvedic medicine, it is often used to improve immunity and support the digestive system.

All our herbs are grown in Jamesport, NY at our certified organic farm. We start each herb from seed or root cutting on farm, hand tend it until peak potency, then mindfully harvest. Next, each herb is small batch dried, processed, and bagged for sale.
