From our Experience:

Dried Calendula is a lovely addition to a tisane (a water infusion/extract of dried herbs) adding a pop of color in addition to its herbal actions.  It is typically an accent herb in a blend.

Calendula supports healing in the lining of the GI tract.  The resin in calyx supports the skin's natural ability to build collagen and this in turn promotes skin healing. 

It is also a mild lymphatic and should not be used internally when pregnant without the guidance of a healthcare practitioner.

Always dry your blossoms before making infused oil.  While it’s tempting to use fresh flowers, the moisture content is high, and most batches will spoil.
