About Product

Elderberries have been used as a tonic in folk and traditional medicine for centuries. The earliest references come from Ancient Greece and Rome, where berries were used to resolve various issues.

Featured in the writings of Hippocrates, Elderberry has a long history of use among European herbalists, possibly because of its unique components.

It's made by freeze-drying fresh elderberries, which are then ground into a powder. This powder retains the beneficial compounds of the fresh berries and can be used in various ways, from adding to smoothies to making teas and syrups.

It's a convenient and easy way to get the qualities of elderberries without having to source and prepare fresh berries.

Our Organic Freeze-Dried Elderberry Powder is a nutritional superstar, as it's loaded with almost twice the nutrients of blueberries.

Elderberries can be used to make preserves and wines and add richness, flavor, and color to recipes.
