Hop Flowers (Humulus lupulus) are well known as a classic ingredient in brewing, but these whole dried flowers are also a versatile staple in the homestead apothecary. Their slightly bitter, earthy flavor and calming aroma make them useful beyond the brew kettle.
Traditionally, hops have been steeped into teas, infused in oils, or added to sachets and pillows for their relaxing qualities. In the kitchen, they bring a unique herbal bitterness to homemade recipes and beverages.

I was looking for hops for tea and tincture. I can trust CeAnne for product quality not always happy with the price. I could get it elsewhere for less but I am choosing to support this website.
This year I've been being more adventurous with trying different teas. Hadn't been sleeping well of late, and decided to try hops tea to see if it would help relax me before bedtime. It is quite bitter, but slowly sipping on a cup for about a half hour did help me relax and stop all the whirling thoughts in my head that usually keeps me awake. Thank you for another great tea adventure!

I was looking for a coffee alternative, enjoy hazelnuts, and this ticked all the boxes. Thank you!
This is absolutely delicious! It hits the perfect Earl Grey balance--strength of aroma and flavor without being overpowering. I always enjoy my Earl Grey tea with a splash of milk or cream--yummmmm!!!!
We loved making the rootbeer syrup and drinking it in floats. We made ours with sucanat. Rootbeer is a favorite here and while it didn’t taste like Virgil’s, we all really appreciated it and enjoyed it, we’ll be making more!
I ordered 3 of the not coffee teas, and they were all so good! Hard to pick my fav. Good way to get off of coffee
I have enjoyed using the tea strainer purchased from Farmhouse Teas. Easy to use and clean. Beats cleaning out wire mesh tea strainers. Thanks for offering it.
I really like these packs, and they last me a long time. My favorite is the rose berry, but am trying out different flavors now. I like all the teas I have tried from here.
I just have to share how much I absolutely enjoy, Farmhouse Teas and their book Homestead Pantry Herbs! This is hands-down one of the most practical, encouraging, and genuinely helpful resources I’ve come across. Everything is explained in such a simple, down-to-earth way using everyday items most of us already have at home no overwhelm, no pressure, just real, usable knowledge.
Reading it feels like sitting at the kitchen table with a wise, caring friend who truly wants to help you learn and succeed. It’s empowering, inspiring, and actually makes you excited to try things yourself.
I also love that they offer other amazing books and hard-to-find supplies if you need them but always in a supportive, no-pressure way that shows they truly care about people, not just sales.
If you appreciate honest, knowledgeable, big-hearted folks who are passionate about helping others live more naturally and confidently, I cannot recommend them enough. Truly a blessing to find!
After experiencing severe back pain for several days my daughter asked if I had anything that might help. I had just (that day!) received this, so I gave it to her to use. The next morning she said it was completely gone!! Best muscle help ever!!
My daughter is really enjoying this blend of lemon balm. It's very refreshing and calming.
