Echinacea Root / Purple Coneflower- Grown Organically

Echinacea roots

Echinacea augustifolia

Grown organically and regeneratively by one of the Meeting House Farm Collaborative Farms. Available chipped.

Chipped roots are dried immediately after harvest in an on-farm drying facility to maximize potency and preserve quality.

Pre-orders are closed until Spring of 2024.

For customers who pre-ordered from our 2023 harvest, you were put into a queue for the next harvested pound. Orders will ship out in the order they were received.

Smaller bags (1 oz and 4 oz sizes) will be made available once we have filled all pre-orders.

We typically harvest Echinacea roots in Late Fall.

From our Experience:

Echinacea is a beautiful addition to any garden.  It feeds pollinators during the season and birds all winter. 

Use dried leaves and flowers in an infusion within the first 8 months after harvest.  The roots maintain medicinal value for up to 18 months.  Test your Echinacea's effectiveness with the mouth buzz test - if it buzzes your mouth when you taste it, it’s active!
