Description
Alfalfa is a perennial that resembles clover, which flowers into clusters of small, purple flowers. Alfalfa is used for a variety of purposes, from pet supplements to human medicine. Alfalfa has a reputation as a good "all-around" herb due to (relatively) high vitamin and mineral content. Our California-grown alfalfa, which is cut before flowering, is sun-dried and untreated. Sourced from confirmed non-GMO alfalfa.
