Whole Flower Herbs

The whole flower head of a plant is harvested and dried as such in order to preserve its medicinal properties. All parts of the plant that do not touch air (the inside of the flower head) deteriorates much slower thus preserving the plant's medicinal constituents longer.

 

Plants grown in our own backyards:

Herb Pocket workers grow plants without herbicides, pesticides, insecticides, fungicides, etc.  That’s better than “certified organic.”  When we harvest herbs it’s at the right time of day and at the right time of year for the best medicine. As we harvest we notice and discard rusted leaves, grass pieces, bugs, and yellowed leaves. We harvest (usually within a few minutes) and immediately take the plants inside where, if needed, they are washed and dried as quickly as possible. We do not use a steam application to kill bugs on freshly harvested plants. Our herbs dry in a dark room until they are placed in a paper sack for storage, also in a dark room. If a tincture is being made from the dried plant, it has been made within 6 weeks (usually less) of harvest. If a tincture is made from the fresh plant, it is made within 48 hours of harvest. All plants and plant medicine are kept in the dark as much as possible during and after processing. We pick every flower and leaf. We give thanks to the plants. We pour our heart and soul into providing a top quality product because we expect the plants to be very good at supporting normal body function to help our families. 

Something exceptional about Herb Pocket is that we try to be as transparent as possible as to what exactly you are purchasing. 

As a new company in 2022 we are still learning and so we’d appreciate your patience and feedback. Contact us at herbpocket2@gmail.com

Plants wild harvested:

Herb Pocket workers harvest some plants in the wild. We do so ethically and legally. The plants are stored in paper sacks until they are brought home for processing.  When we harvest herbs it’s at the right time of day and at the right time of year for most potency. We wash (if necessary) and dry plants as quickly as possible using a fan. Plants dry in a dark room until they are placed in a paper sack for storage. If a tincture is being made from the dried plant, it has been made within 6 weeks (usually less) of harvest. If a tincture is made from the fresh plant, it is made within 48 hours of harvest. All plants and plant medicine are kept in the dark as much as possible during and after processing. Wild crafted herbs are strong medicine. We pour our heart and soul into providing a top quality product because we expect the plants to be very good at supporting normal body function to help our families.
