DESCRIPTION
‘Your mother was a hamster, and your father smelled of elderberries!’ (Monty Python)

Elderberry (Sambucus nigra) is so named as a wise ‘elder’ plant, and with such notoriety she has spread her roots deeply throughout history, mythology, and medicines. With such reverence in mind, these dried beauties offer you a generous amount of her rich dark fruits that provide a panacea of big plant medicine, particularly flavonoids and antioxidants.  Did you know that elderberries are one of the most used medicinal plants worldwide? They’ve been used throughout history in many different cultures at the first signs of respiratory illness.  Research has shown that the compounds found in elderberries bind to viruses before they can penetrate the cells whilst at the same time stimulating an immune response.  Depending on the season, these beauties come from small organic farms in Tasmania and Victoria.
