BOTANICAL REMEDIES
Plants With Purpose
Rooted in the Plants.
Our botanical remedies are rooted in the enduring relationship between people and plants. Our practice draws most deeply from European and Euro-American folk herbal traditions, while recognizing that rich and distinct traditions of plant medicine have developed in cultures throughout the world. Where we work with plants rooted in other traditions, we approach their histories with respect, use their resources with restraint, and credit their orgins.
While we draw on generations of herbal knowledge, we remain curious about what there is still to learn. We look not only to traditional uses, but to modern research where it exists, as well as our own experience and intuition—considering what each plant brings to a preparation, how plants can work in concert, and what may be the most beneficial for the ways we live now.
Made slowly and in small batches, our salves, oils, tinctures, teas, and other preparations are created with respect to the plants themselves and the knowledge—old and new—that surrounds them.
No miracles. No quick fixes. Just plants—here to support you and your families through life’s many seasons.
