Wild Goldenrod Jelly

Goldenrod season just finished up and therefore we crafted a small batch of Jelly. It is as beautiful as the little flower blooms themselves and tastes like sunshine.

Goldenrod blooms at the same time as many allergen weeds, but its pollen isn't airborne and doesn't cause allergies. Instead, goldenrod pollen is heavy and sticky, primarily transferred by insects. The real culprit for your stuffy nose is likely ragweed, which releases lightweight pollen that easily becomes airborne.

Goldenrod is often enjoyed in teas, tinctures and jellies. I personally like a spoonful of this jelly in my hot morning tea, instead of using honey or sugar. It is the perfect compliment!
