A trophorestorative, Hawthorn nourishes and restores balance to the cardiovascular system. By optimizing cardiovascular function, the berries, leaves and flowers also act as calming nervines for the nervous system; easing stress, supporting mood and setting us up for more restful sleep. All this together means a revitalized system that is more resilient in the face of stressors as they inevitably and sometimes unpredictably, arrive on our doorsteps.
To harvest your own hoard of this thorny cousin of the apple, look in late August on the borders of fields and forests as well as near old farmhouses for trees glowing with these fleeting rubies. We harvest ours in the wild, under Vermont’s late summer sun. Leaves and flowers, however, we pick in May. To supplement our stock, we source from Zack Woods Herb Farm, in Hyde Park, VT, Wayside Botanicals in Ferndale WA, and Oshala Farm in Grant’s Pass, OR.*
