Why It Matters Who Makes Your Herbal Products: Celebrating the 20th Anniversary of Red Moon Herbs!

Why It Matters Who Makes Your Herbal Products: Celebrating the 20th Anniversary of Red Moon Herbs!

Our focus on fresh, local, abundant plant material continues to set Red Moon Herbs apart, and while we’ve always been local, today we are even more so. When Red Moon Herbs moved to Earthaven Ecovillage 12 years ago, we actively encouraged and cultivated those previously wildcrafted “weeds” at our back door. Today, thanks to those efforts, the vast majority of our herbal allies are regularly harvested on site. This is as local as local gets!

Senecio: A Bright Yellow Cluster of Flowers Bring Spring

Senecio: A Bright Yellow Cluster of Flowers Bring Spring

Formerly Senecio aureus is now Packera aurea. Named for John Packer at the University of Alberta, Canada who has been differentiating those Senecio species originating in the old world (Europe) and those native to the Americas, this plant, also known as liferoot, is in a category of its own. Liferoot (Packera aurea) is a beautiful golden herb that when taken 10-30 drops at a time helps promote the optimal function of the female reproductive system and menstrual cycle.

And they are women. Apparently women and their natural talents are changing the world. While we’ve know this instinctively, the research is now bearing this to be true.
