Blue Vervain

Certified Organic Blue Vervain – Sacred Herb of the Prairie

Ancient Wisdom Meets Modern Herbalism
Discover the timeless essence of blue vervain, a revered native botanical that has graced the prairies of North America for millennia. Hand-harvested from the certified organic fields of Keewaydin Farms in Wisconsin’s ecologically rich Driftless Region, our blue vervain carries forward centuries of traditional plant wisdom.

A Plant Steeped in History
Blue vervain (Verbena hastata) stands as one of North America’s most historically significant herbs, earning names like “Holy Herb” and “Enchanter’s Plant” across diverse cultures. Indigenous peoples of the Great Lakes region have long treasured this elegant prairie native for its role in traditional wellness practices and ceremonial use. Its distinctive tall spires of tiny purple-blue flowers create a striking presence in our gardens.

Pristine Harvest
Each plant is personally tended and hand-harvested during peak flowering when the slender flower spikes display their full purple glory and the plant’s beneficial compounds are most concentrated. Our careful drying process preserves the herb’s natural integrity and potency.
