Organic Milky Oats

Avena sativa

Certified Organic milky oats, hand-harvested at the milky stage on our farm at La Ferme À Ciel Sur Mer in Charlevoix, Québec. One of the most quietly trusted nervine herbs in Western herbalism, used to support a depleted nervous system through burnout, life transitions, and the long arc of restoration.

Why Our Milky Oats

• Certified Organic, grown on our farm in Quebec
• Hand-harvested at the milky stage, a narrow 7-to-10-day window each summer
• Dried at low heat to preserve the milky-stage chemistry
• Packaged and shipped direct from the farm
• Our milky oats are grown in seasonal batches. Current stock is in and should carry us through to our next harvest in August.

The quality is visible: pale green colour in the dried tops, a clean sweet-grassy scent, and intact seed heads.

Key Uses

• Long overnight infusions and lighter daily teas
• Blending: pairs well with nettle, tulsi, lemon balm, and chamomile
• Home tincture-making from dried tops
• Food-like enough for daily, long-term routines

How to Use

Most commonly prepared as a long infusion of the dried tops; see our guide to milky oats benefits for ratios and methods, or our step-by-step guide to making a milky oats tincture.
