Comfrey Leaf
Comfrey (Symphytum officinale)
Comfrey is a deeply rooted and generous plant, long recognized for its large, velvety leaves and strong presence in the garden. Harvested at peak vitality, the leaves are gathered with care to preserve their texture, color, and plant integrity.
Our Comfrey is grown regeneratively, following organic standards, by Power Farm Herbals in Falmouth, Maine. Leaves are dried immediately after harvest in an on farm drying facility to maximize potency, preserve quality, and maintain the character of the fresh plant.

From Our Experience
Comfrey is a plant that asks for discernment and respect. We tend to think of it as an herb best worked with intentionally, often kept separate from lighter blends. Its strength and abundance make it a powerful ally when approached thoughtfully and with clear purpose.
