Hi all, looking for calendula, either petals for infusing or even seeds to start my own. Please let me know what you'd like in return. Thanks girls! Toni |

Not sure on the seeds...but if no one else comes up with them, Mountain Rose Herbs (featured in the Cluck so a friend of farmgirls!) carries the petals, certified organic.

I have a ton of seeds! Alot of my flowers have gone to seed and are going to seed because I haven't been keeping up with dead heading. Send me an email with your addresses and I will send them as soon as they are dry because they are in different stages of the process.
I have already put up a gallon jar of dried calendula this summer and still working on more. =)
Do what you love, love what you do. |

Thanks Angie, sent you an email. What do you use your calendula for? How about anyone else? Thanks Denise for the tip for Mountain Rose, don't know why I didn't look there... Have a beautiful day! |

I put calendula in many different herbal salves and preparations. It's one of those "all-purpose" herbs. =)
Please send me an email if anyone is interested in seeds. I went out and looked tonight, there will be lots to share.
Do what you love, love what you do. |

| Organic calendula officinalis seeds are readily available online (I like doing business with Seeds of Change myself), but it's so much nicer to get them from friends, isn't it? They're really easy to grow. |
