Description

Bedstraw / Cleavers Powder is a finely milled green botanical powder made from dried aerial parts of Galium aparine. Also known as cleavers or bedstraw, it is traditionally used in herbal tea blends, cleansing-style wellness routines and simple water-based preparations. The powder has a mild green character that works well in teas, toners, scalp rinses and powdered herb blends.

Its bulk format suits repeat-use herbal blending, DIY projects and small-batch making. Why we love it: Cleavers has a gentle, fresh herbal profile that makes it easy to blend with stronger botanicals.
