Bee Balm is a mint-family wildflower native to North America, where it plays an important role as a pollen source for bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds and has been used medicinally for immune system support for time immemorial.

At Soul Fire Farm, we grow bee balm as part of the medicinal and sacred herb understory of our jaden lakou ("courtyard garden" in Haitian Kreyòl) where we uplift the brilliance of planting fruit and nut trees and perennial herbs together on agroforestry terraces bound by soil, compost, wood chips, woven branches, and fungal mycelia.

We honor bee balm as a beloved medicine of the Mohican people, original stewards of the land where Soul Fire Farm is located, who were forced westward by Settler colonialism to what is now the Stockbridge Munsee Mohican reservation in Wisconsin. Mohican healer Misty Cook notes in the book Medicine Generations that "#6 is the most commonly used Medicine amongst our people still today. Most everyone I talked to about from our tribe mentioned #6." She notes that they call bee balm "#6" because "it’s that commonly used."

Bee balm, also known as Wild Bergamot, grows wild on parts of the reservation and is steeped as tea for colds, flu, and pain relief. Soul Fire Farm will be donating their proceeds of seed sales to support seed keeping and gardening projects of the Stockbridge Munsee Mohican Nation, members of which hope to visit their ancestral lands and plant seeds at Soul Fire Farm soon.

Also known as Monarda.

Planting / harvesting notes

Sow 6-8 weeks before last frost in moist potting soil. Transplant in the garden 12-18" apart in sun or partial shade.

Seed keeping notes

Allow seedheads to dry on the plant. Cut the stalks below the lowest seed clusters. If necessary, dry the seedheads further in the sun on a sheet or table away from moisture and precipitation. When fully dry, whack the seedheads in a bucket, allowing the ripest seed to fall. Sift through strainers to remove the largest chaff, and then winnow off the lighter chaff with your breath, a fan, or the wind.

No problems after a year and a half
Color: Dogwood & Calming, Size: Medium
Have been regularly buying these for my corgi for about a year and a half. The 2 pack lasts about a month or 2 each time. Pieces break off in small enough pieces that they safely pass through his digestive system. He gnaws each one down to about 1/4 the original size before we take it away and give him a new one. He continues to have regular bowel movements and has a healthy appetite so I can’t imagine any problems arising after so long. I have tried other alternatives and every other similar chew breaks off in larger pieces and didn’t feel comfortable letting him chew/eat them. I noticed there are a few 1 star reviews saying their dogs got sick off these but after a year and a half I have had 0 issues with this product. I guess it depends on the dog and how big of pieces they are swallowing. My dog ingests pieces about the size of a grain of rice so just pay attention and you should be fine.

Long lasting and safer alternative to sticks
Color: Dogwood & Calming, Size: Medium
These are great, very durable, and have lasted a very long time. Much safer for my dogs than the random sticks they find in the yard. They do get shorter with chewing eventually, but they don't break off in little chunks like I've seen with some nylon chews, and they don't splinter like wood. Medium size works well for both my 16 lb Cavalier and my 60 lb Pyrenees/Golden mix. They're both moderate-to-aggressive chewers, though size obviously affects how much damage they can do. I wish you could buy the hemp chew separately because that one is very much a favorite in my house, so after 2 years and 2 purchases, I have barely any left of the remaining hemp chew, but still 2 of the dogwood chews that neither dog is as interested in anymore. I'd love to buy a couple more of just the hemp one.

Your dog will thank you.
Color: Dogwood & Fresh Breath, Size: Large
My dogs loves to chew on these. They make a small mess but not as bad as other chews. They are food for keeping teeth clean.

Nice chew toy
Color: Dogwood Mushroom, Size: Medium, Color: Dogwood Mushroom, Size: Medium
Super durable and puppy loves it. It was a bit hard for her at first but now at 5 months it’s one of her favorite things to gnaw on! It is heavy for the size but seems to be great quality and has given many hours of chew time with minimal wear.
