Honouring the seasons means working with what’s available, when it’s available, thereby aligning our body to the wise cycles of the earth. When fresh plants are prioritised over dry ones, you know that you are receiving a potent capture of herbs at their most powerful, aromatic and effective.

Either homegrown or locally foraged, every item in this apothecary has been lovingly handmade, from conception through to completion, and from seeding to harvest.

Creating medicines in small batches encourages sustainability, never taking more than is needed or easily gifted from the earth, with every part of the plant treated with reverence and care.

Being low waste means having a minimal carbon footprint, and avoiding plastic wherever possible - both during the creation process and in the finished product by replacing it with biodegradable and low-tox alternatives.

Ingredients that can’t be made by me (such as coconut oil or beeswax) are sourced as ethically as possible, with a focus on organic, non-GMO, unsprayed materials as close to their natural form as possible. Sourcing from local providers reduces the overall carbon footprint, and supports local small businesses.

Being in reciprocity with the earth means divesting from ‘using and consuming’ as a one way beneficiary, and participating in a relational model in which all life benefits and thrives.

Weaving in the cycles of Sun, Moon and Sky add layers of potency, meaning and specificity - as above, so below.
