St. John's Wort, also known as Goat Weed and Rosin Rose, occurs naturally throughout North America, Africa and Europe. Although this herb has gained a lot of attention in recent years, its use dates to ancient Greece. The plant gets its name from the reputation of blooming on or near June 24th, the day celebrated as the birth date of John the Baptist.

The dried herb is used in tea blends or used to make infusions, tinctures and extracts.

St. John's wort

Named after John the Baptist, St. John’s wort is an upright flowering perennial originally native to Europe but now found throughout most of the world. In fact, the plant has proliferated in some regions to the point of invasiveness.

Although the herb is toxic to grazing livestock in large does, humans have taken advantage of the plant’s beneficial properties for centuries. The seed pods and flower buds yield a red dye for wool and other textiles, the color of which can be modified to varying shades depending on acidity of the dye bath. Infused in oil, the herb promotes skin health and helps to ease muscular pain when applied topically.
