Traditional Context
Jewelweed has been referenced in North American folk herbal traditions for generations, particularly in seasonal and outdoor living contexts. The plant was historically prepared as an infused oil or fresh plant application, emphasizing gentle, external use rather than internal consumption.
How Creation Farm Uses Jewelweed
Creation Farm prepares jewelweed primarily as a slow-infused herbal oil. This method allows the plant material to gradually transfer its qualities into a lipid base, which may then be incorporated into select topical products. Jewelweed is used as part of a broader formulation philosophy rooted in traditional herbal preparation methods.
