OUR HERB GARDEN

DAYEMPUR MEDICINAL

HERB GARDEN

Dayempur Herbals has been growing medicinal herbs and handcrafting products since 2007. Our medicinal herb garden is at Dayempur Farm: Center for Sustainable Living, in Anna, IL. We grow nearly 50 medicinal herbs and make tinctures/liquid extracts, infused herbal oils, salve, sprays, and elderberry syrup. Chemicals have never been used on our land, and we maintain sustainable practices in all ways. 


Throughout the year, we host educational workshops, including an annual workshop at Dayempur Farm in June.

 

We welcome visitors at Dayempur Farm. For those who want to get their hands dirty, we offer opportunities to work and learn with us in the Herb Garden.
