Calendula Marigold

Calendula, also known as marigold, is a plant originally from the Mediterranean region but is now cultivated worldwide. The flowers of the marigold are often dried and used in herbal medicine and natural care products. The plant is known for its bright orange-yellow flowers and has a long history of use in traditional medicine.

Traditionally, calendula is used for its soothing properties. It is often applied in ointments and oils for skin care. For animals such as dogs and horses, calendula can help support healthy skin and promote the healing of minor wounds or irritations. In chickens, it can be used as a natural remedy to support overall health.

The potential benefits of calendula are versatile. It is often praised for its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Although it is not a substitute for veterinary care, calendula can be a valuable addition to the natural care of dogs, chickens, and horses.
