About my herbs

Our health is very important, which is why every single plant ingredient that I use to create my remedies either grows wild or is home grown and harvested by me, so that I know exactly where it came from and what goes into each one. All of my plants are chemical free and completely organic. So much thought and care and hard work is put into making sure I am able to create the cleanest, safest, most potent herbal medicine possible.
