Wild Cherry Bark (Prunus serotina) comes from the same plant family as apricots, peaches, and almonds. Traditionally valued in herbal practices, this cut and sifted bark is known for its rich content of tannins, quercetin, kaempferol, and other natural compounds.

With its earthy, slightly bitter flavor, wild cherry bark is a popular ingredient in homemade syrups and herbal teas. For best results, steep in hot water rather than boiling, as high heat can reduce its delicate properties. It’s a versatile staple for homestead apothecaries and creative kitchen projects.
