Chickweed Loose Tea - Certified Organic

Hand-Selected by Qualified Herbal Naturopath | 100% Certified Organic | Fast Australia-Wide Shipping

Thriving in cool, damp soils across the temperate regions of northern Europe and Asia, Chickweed (Stellaria media) is easily recognized by its delicate star-like white blossoms—reflected in its botanical name Stellaria (from the Latin for "little star"). Long before it was considered a common garden weed, chickweed was prized by traditional European herbalists, Anglo-Saxon healers, and Nicholas Culpeper as a premier cooling, moistening, and nutrient-rich botanical. Abundant in saponins, vitamins, and minerals, Chickweed is celebrated in Western herbalism as a classic vulnerability-soothing plant, exceptional for cooling internal heat, soothing dry or itchy tissue, and encouraging smooth metabolic flow.

TASTE & ENERGETICS

• Taste: Mild, sweet, leafy-green, slightly salty, refreshing
• Energetics: Cooling, moistening, soothing, alterative

TRADITIONALLY USED FOR:

• Soothing Itchy & Irritated Skin: Cooling surface heat and relieving dry, red, inflamed skin conditions when used internally or as a topical bath/compress.
• Metabolic & Tissue Clearance: Assisting the body’s natural clearance of metabolic buildup, fatty deposits, and sluggish waste.
• Lymphatic Movement: Gently stimulating lymphatic circulation to support swollen glands and ease tissue fluid stagnation.
• Mucosal & Digestive Cooling: Hydrating and soothing dry, irritated mucosal linings throughout the stomach, intestines, and urinary tract.

BREWING & PREPARATION INSTRUCTIONS

• Infusion (Nourishing Tea): Add 1–2 teaspoons of dried Chickweed herb to 1 cup of freshly boiled water. Cover tightly with a saucer (to trap delicate volatile nutrients) and steep for 8–10 minutes. Strain and sip warm up to 3 times daily.
• Topical Soothing Wash or Compress: Brew a strong infusion (2 tablespoons per cup of water), allow to cool completely, and apply directly to irritated skin using a clean cloth, or add directly to bathwater.
