Valerian, Herbal tea 70g

Description

Valerian ( Valeriana officinalis ) is a flowering perennial plant belonging to the Valerianaceae family . The characteristic smelling roots of the plant are used for the production of herbal teas and decoctions.

Valerian plants are grown in an absolutely natural way on our land located in Fermo, in the open countryside. The cultivation therefore does not foresee the use of pesticides, herbicides, or chemical fertilizers, in full respect of the health of the environment and people.

The harvest takes place in autumn, from plants that are at least 2 years old. The roots are then dried at low temperatures (<43°), so as to keep the properties of the plant unaltered.

Finally the Valerian roots are shredded and packaged.
