Flax Seeds
Size: 8 oz Bag
(Latin Name: Linum usitatissimum)
(Also known as: Linseed)
Brief History & Origin
Flax is one of the world’s most ancient plants, woven into the fabric of human life since 3000 BCE. In Egypt, flax was spun into linen for the robes of priests and pharaohs, symbolizing purity and connection to the divine. The seeds, golden or brown, were treasured as food and medicine—carried by healers for nourishment and gentle healing of the gut and heart. Flax’s Latin name, Linum usitatissimum, means "most useful," a testament to its versatility. In herbal traditions, flax is seen as a seed of life—a soft, grounding medicine that nourishes, protects, and helps things flow.
