About Our Products
Our medicines are of the highest quality because:
-
To ensure optimum potency, our herbs are lovingly handcrafted in small batches. We process all of the herbs ourselves.
-
Only the freshest plant material is used in our medicines. Since we gather the herbs ourselves, we transform them directly from vibrant living plants to brewing medicines.
-
We always choose the common, abundant plants that grow nearby over rare, exotic, or endangered plants with similar actions.
-
We harvest the plants at the peak of their potency by following the cycles of moon, season, and weather.
-
Our commitment to preserving the earth’s natural resources guides all our wildcrafting techniques. The stands we return to each year flourish under these practices. We also use recycled office products whenever possible, including all of our packing material.
-
We harvest from pristine natural settings in fields and forests of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Herbs we cannot find in our area are provided by other conscientious wildcrafters and organic growers.
-
We use only the highest quality minstrums: organic grain alcohol, organic vinegar, and pure olive oil.
-
Our tinctures and vinegars steep for at least six weeks, rather than the two week industry standard, allowing a fuller range of constituents to infuse.
-
All of our oils are made by a cold extraction process. They are never exposed to the heat that can degrade them, like many salves and oils are in the herb industry.
-
We offer herbal kits for every cycle of a woman's life: Moontime Herbs Kit, Pregnant Goddess Kit, and Natural Menopause Kit.
-
Our deep rapport and communication with the plants invites their spirits to enrich the medicines.
