Saw Palmetto is a type of palm tree that grows in the warm climate in the southeast coast of the US. Traditionally, Native Americans ate the berries from the saw palmetto to ease urinary and reproductive problems, among other ailments. Now saw palmetto is available in tablet, tea and liquid form. Please be aware that some of these forms sold in stores and online have been adulterated and are not pure. The berries we harvest are from our own property in Florida, Florinda Farms, free from chemicals. Our berries have been sun dried and not exposed to extreme heat. Whole berries may be crushed, boiled into a tea, or made into a tincture using vodka or apple cider vinegar. We will include recipes with purchase. We are used to the strong flavor and eat them whole. Be aware that the center seed is jaw-breaking hard and should not be used in a home grade blender. Cast iron hand crushers work best. Florinda was an old turpentine mill in the 1800’s. We have found artifacts on documents on our land that lead us to greater understanding of how the people in the 1800’s used the saw palmetto berries to treat various conditions. People today are still using this herbal remedy to treat conditions caused by decreased testosterone levels.
