Intentionally Crafted, Mindfully Sourced

We believe that peak potency starts with authentic, clean ingredients.

  • Sustainability First: Our process starts in the garden, where we sustainably grow as many herbs as possible on our own land.

Allergy-Aware Formulation

We understand that finding safe products can be challenging for those with sensitivities. That's why we take extra steps to create a truly worry-free experience:

This allows individuals with sensitivities to safely enjoy the nourishing benefits of our herbal blends. You can rest assured our ingredient list will always list any potential top 9 allergy.

We don't just blend- we educate.

Know your herb and its potential. We believe in complete transparency. Every single ingredient in our products is clearly listed and explained, detailing its traditional use and benefits. We don't just blend—we educate. Scroll down for each ingredient's potential benefits.

Avocado Oil.

We chose unrefined, organic, non-gmo avocado oil as our base in our salves and creams due to its endless nourishing properties.

Avocado oil has been shown to increase collagen synthesis, reduce inflammation, while penetrating the skin's barrier to help retain it's natural moisture.

Avocado oil is derived from the fruit, not from the seed, making this oil abundant in micro and macro nutrients.

Arnica.

This beautiful flower has been used medicinally since the 1500's, although Saint Hildegard of Bingen (a visionary mystic and nun born in 1098) did mention the use of arnica in her writings.

Arnica may be one of the best herbs for external ailments such as localized pain, inflammation, to even bruises and sprains. Studies show that arnica has immunostimulant properties that stimulate phagocytosis, thus,
arnica may be beneficial to regain tissue homeostasis.

Bioactive Arnica is not safe to ingest internally.

Willowbark.

Willow bark has been used for millennia in traditional medicine for pain and fever. It contains salicin, which has properties similar to aspirin.

Historically, it was used for conditions like rheumatism and fevers. Some modern studies suggest it may help with chronic lower back pain, joint pain, and osteoarthritis. It is also included in some products for fitness and weight management, with ongoing studies exploring its potential benefits.
Willow bark has bitter properties, meaning it may support the digestive system.

Think about it like his, bitter properties directly feed, or communicate with the liver, gallbladder, and pancreas, asking it to produce the bile enzymes and salts we need, in order to properly digestion our food.

Comfrey.

Allantoin is an active constituent of comfrey. This constituent is highly prized and often used in skin care products to soothe irritation and protect minor cuts, scrapes, and burns.

According to this scientific study, "Allantoin has also been shown to have multiple properties/effects expected to facilitate transition of a wound from an inflammatory to a proliferative state, including antioxidant and antiinflammatory properties, direct antimicrobial effects, and keratolytic activity facilitating wound healing."

Tamanu Oil.

If you have a tree nut allergy, you need to avoid the use of tamanu oil.

Tamanu oil has been special to the Pacfic Islanders for a long time. The tamanu tree itself holds cultural significance in some regions, with the oil being used for everything from treating skin ailments to traditional tattooing practices.

Tamanu oil has been shown to support irritated nerves, inflammed tissues, and muscle pain.

Rosemary Essential Oil.

Rosemary contains compounds like rosmarinic acid, which have shown promise in soothe inflammation and combat damaging oxidative stress.

Rosemary's anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties may help manage pain associated with conditions such as, arthritis, fibromyalgia, muscle pain, and bone pain.


New research shows promise for those struggling with neuropathy. Rosemary may support nerve pain.

Camphor Essential Oil.

Camphor is one of the herbalist's favorite herbs, or essential oils to use when dealing with long term skin irritation, eczema, or any long-term skin condition.

Camphor's bioactive properties:

Analgesic Effects: Camphor possesses pain-relieving properties, making it a common ingredient in topical balms and ointments for muscle and joint pain.
Counterirritant Effect: When applied topically, camphor increases local blood flow and acts as a "counterirritant," which can reduce pain and swelling by causing irritation

With Wintergreen.

Our pain stick with wintergreen is formulated to provide a cooling sensation when applied topically. Here are some benefits of wintergreen.

Wintergreen provides this blend an extra menthol kick when combined with peppermint. Just like peppermint the bioactive properties of wintergreen have been shown to exhibit anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties.

Without Wintergreen.

Helichrysum blends with wintergreen and peppermint to provide an extra cooling effect. Dont let the delicate flower buds fool you, helichrysum is a powerhouse. Helichrysum may have anti-inflammatory properties soothing inflamed tissues.

"just like honey baby from the bee"

Beeswax Quick Benefits:

  • Emollient: It's rich in Linoleic Acid (an Omega-6 fatty acid), which helps the skin maintain its natural moisture barrier and prevents dehydration.

  • Rich in Vitamin E: As a powerful antioxidant, Vitamin E helps protect the skin from environmental stressors and supports overall skin health.

  • Non-Comedogenic: It's a lightweight oil that is highly absorbent and generally won't clog pores, making it suitable for most skin types, including acne-prone skin.

  • Soothing: It has anti-inflammatory qualities that can help calm dry, sensitive, or irritated skin. Perfect for those seasonal transitions that dry out the skin during autumn and winter transitions.

    Our salves are formulated with raw, local beeswax. Beeswax is abundant in vitamin A, making beeswax moisturizing to the skin, while it soothes red, irritated, and inflamed skin.

    Did you know that honeybees have a very sophisticated memory for being so tiny? Not only that but, their dedication to their craft, and loyalty to their queen is unmatched.

    It takes twelve worker bees to make one teaspoon of honey. With bees having a life expectancy of six to eight weeks, that's basically their entire lifetime. So, the next time you use honey to sweeten your tea, be sure to give extra thanks to those bees.
