Slippery Elm Bark, Cut & Sifted: a soft, soothing American classic 🌿
Our Slippery Elm Bark is the cut and sifted inner bark of Ulmus rubra, the native American shade tree also loved as Red Elm, Indian Elm, Moose Elm, and Sweet Elm. We process it in small batches and seal it in a resealable pouch so every spoonful stays fresh and ready to steep into a soothing tea. The flavor is gentle and comforting: honeyed oats up front, a whisper of dry straw, and the soft, starchy roundness of warm cooked pasta.
We offer it in two grades so you can choose what fits your practice: naturally grown and organic, both cut and sifted from the same clean American bark.
Slippery elm is grown in the USA, where this native shade tree has flourished in American forests for centuries. That heritage shows up in the quality of the bark: clean, fresh, and rich in the silky mucilage that has made it a classic for generations. Every lot we ship receives its own per-lot lab work and the same 100% money-back guarantee as everything we carry.
Soil is the heart of who we are. Our own farm in Colorado earned a groundbreaking Haney Soil Health Score of 25.4, a number that surpasses the soil biology measured in pristine forest land, and we believe healthier soil grows more complex, more potent plants. That conviction is the standard we hold every herb we carry to, and it is why every botanical we offer is backed by its own per-lot lab work and our 100% money-back guarantee. You can explore the full story of this herb in our deep-dive slippery elm article.
Herbalists have reached for slippery elm for generations as a classic demulcent: a mucilage-rich bark that turns silky in water and has long been brewed into soothing teas, cold infusions, and lozenge blends. The cut and sifted form steeps and strains cleanly, and it pairs naturally with other gentle botanicals in our digestive wellness collection. If you like working with loose, versatile herbs, you will feel right at home in our cut and sifted herbs collection.

Safety and good-to-know
Slippery elm is mucilaginous, which is exactly what gives it that silky, soothing quality. Because that same mucilage can slow how quickly the body absorbs other substances taken by mouth, it is best enjoyed at least one to two hours apart from any oral medications or supplements. Drink it with a full glass of water so the fiber can do its work comfortably.
Those with known tree or pollen allergies may wish to introduce it gradually, as allergic sensitivity is always possible. If you are pregnant, nursing, managing a health condition, or preparing for surgery, consult a qualified practitioner before adding slippery elm to your routine. Keep out of reach of small children, and use as a traditional herbal preparation only.

Frequently asked questions
How do I brew slippery elm bark, cut and sifted, into a soothing tea?
We love it as a simple steeped tea. Add about one tablespoon of the cut and sifted bark to a mug, pour over hot water, cover, and let it steep for ten to fifteen minutes so the mucilage can bloom into a silky, slightly thickened cup, then strain. For an even smoother draw, steep it in cool water for a few hours as a cold infusion. The flavor is soft and faintly sweet, with notes of honeyed oats, dry straw, and warm cooked pasta, so a touch of honey or cinnamon rounds it out beautifully.
Can I take slippery elm at the same time as my other medications?
We recommend spacing them out. Slippery elm is rich in mucilage, the soft fiber that gives it that signature silky texture, and that same mucilage can slow how quickly the body absorbs other things taken by mouth. The simple fix is to enjoy your slippery elm at least one to two hours before or after any oral medications or supplements. If you are pregnant, nursing, or managing a health condition, please check with a qualified practitioner first.
Where does your slippery elm come from, and how do I know it is clean?
Our slippery elm is grown in the USA, where this native tree has thrived in American forests for centuries. Every lot we ship receives its own Certificate of Analysis verifying purity and potency, and we publish each batch's COA on our slippery elm article page so you can confirm the exact lot you are receiving. That radical transparency is backed by the same 100% money-back guarantee as everything we carry.
What happens if it is not the right fit for me?
