Medicinal Herb Garden
The Wyckoff Garden hosts a wealth of medicinal herbs, flowers, and plants. Many of these plants would have been brought over by early immigrants (i.e., dandelion) and many others are ancient herbs native to the Americas. Photos and more information on the medicinal herbs coming soon. If you are interested in coming to harvest herbs to take home to dry and use for tea or other medicinal purposes, please email garden@wyckoffmuseum.org.
