Historically, red clover has been valued for its potential to treat a wide range of conditions, from respiratory issues to skin disorders. They contain several bioactive compounds, including isoflavones, which are plant-based estrogens (phytoestrogens) that can mimic effects of estrogen in the body.

Goldenrod, a member of Asteraceae, blooms late summer through early fall. Their botanical name, Solidago, is Latin for solidus: "to make whole." They’ve been used to heal wounds, treat inflammation of the mouth & throat, for tuberculosis, diabetes & arthritis.

Mugwort, or A. vulgaris, was referred to as the "mother of herbs" during the Middle Ages. The dried leaves can be smoked or brewed to a tea that encourages lucid dreaming. This oneirogenic effect is likely due to the thujone contained in mugwort.

This, lovelies, is Motherwort—

As a feminist organization with a focus on healing those who have suffered at the hands of a patriarchal medical system (such as AFAB individuals) this plant is huge ally.

Just a happy pig chillin at Dreamland Farmstead, eating all the dandelion he can—

We just hope he knows dandelion has diuretic properties.

Some lovely mullein (young, as they’re close to the ground).

This is a wonderful plant for asthmatics and those recovering from upper respiratory issues.

Their leaves are incredibly soft—a helpful thing to remember when identifying them.
