These cut and sifted root pieces are rich in natural mucilage, giving them a smooth, comforting quality that makes them ideal for teas, infusions, and homemade syrups.

Traditionally prepared as a cold infusion or decoction, marshmallow root adds a soft, earthy flavor to tea blends and works beautifully in body care recipes such as salves, balms, and herbal rinses. Grown in the USA, this versatile root is a homestead staple for culinary and DIY projects.

These teas are high quality.

I ordered marshmallow root, High Desert Hibiscus and a green tea/strawberry tea. The marshmallow root tea smells like it was just harvested. It is fresh and potent. Living in the desert of Arizona, I am enjoying my other teas as well. I prefer them cold. I have been experimenting, by adding the tea as my liquid in smoothies. They are so refreshing and have great fruity tones. I will definitely buy again. Thank you.

Marshmallow Root - Excellent product! Will purchase again.

I always look forward to receiving my order. The products are packaged as gifts (wrapped in tissue paper and attractive packaging material), and the marshmallow root is fresh and has a very slight mint taste. I will order again. Thank you for providing quality organic teas, herbs, and associated items.

A GREAT TEA!

I really enjoyed this tea. First time trying marshmallow root, but it was recommended by an herbalist after I explained my intestinal issues. I have noticed a difference for the better, that I was not anticipating so soon, and highly recommended this tea. When looking for marshmallow root, I purposely looked for a source that was not Amazon and really liked the look and story behind Farmhouse Teas. I'd much rather support a small, family business any day. So far I am very pleased with my purchase.

Unbelievably high quality loose leaf organic tea. I purchased this tea for medicinal purposes and it has been absolutely fantastic. Packaged and shipped in a highly professional manner. The tea is incredibly fresh and of the highest quality.

So glad to find this root for healthier breathing

I had been reading about marshmallow root,and recently had an upper respiratory illness. Marshmallow root really helped and shortened by illness too. I noticed a difference and didn't need over the counter junk from the store. I am one happy camper!
