Nimbin Apothecary

Nimbin Apothecary Nimbin Apothecary has been providing herbs and health support to Nimbin for over 30 years! We love what we do. We would love to meet you!

We are a team of dedicated and passionate, fully qualified herbalists and naturopaths that are here to be of service. Whilst we certainly operate as a herbal and naturopathic dispensary, our humble little shop also, and most importantly, functions as a space of community connection and wellness. Nimbin Apothecary advocates for a grassroots approach to health which permeates everything we do. From our extensive range of exclusive herbal products that are hand made by our staff, to the ethical sourcing of plants and products, to supporting local makers, we strive to keep our apothecary full of heart and soul in a world that is rapidly changing. Our fully stocked herbal dispensary means that our team of herbalists and naturopaths are able to provide over-the-counter herbal prescriptions and health advice. Nimbin Apothecary has a strong focus on health education and the tradition of folk medicine which reminds people that we each have the knowledge to care for ourselves, each other and our community. Our staff not only prescribe medicines, but impart wisdom and tools for sustainable and autonomous health and happiness. Our apothecary is open Monday to Friday 9am – 5pm, or on Saturdays and Sundays 10am - 3pm. If you can’t make it to Nimbin, please feel free to contact us via phone, our website, or social media.

Presenting our New LOGO!!

Dandelion, the humble w**d that never gives up.
It grows through cracked pavements and rich soil alike.
A flower of wishes and quiet hope for generations.
Its deep roots heal the ground beneath it, nourishing the soil so others plants can thrive, strengthening the whole ecosystem.

Nimbin Apothecary like the dandelion is deeply rooted in our community since 1990 and we are not going anywhere!

Calling all women!!

My bestie is right in the throws of creating something that could change everything! It’s something I would definitely purchase for my daughters as they grow…

I can’t tell you everything but what I can say is I’m so very proud of this women and how hard she is working to bring us a product that is so meaningful, born from helping a friend leave a domestic violent relationship.

I’m humbly asking for you to follow her business page and engage with her posts. It will help bring this brilliant idea into reality as soon as possible and the sooner we have something like this available the better!

As a small business owner myself I know the value in social media engagement whether we like it or not!

So help a sister out … follow and like xox

We are saying goodbye …

To our old Logo 😜

We commissioned the mind blowingly talented Nimbin local Jen Harkness to create our very own logo back in 2020 about a year after we took over the business.
I was inspired by her breathtaking artworks and wanted something that was a little old worldly and hand drawn. It has served us beautifully over the last 6 years but a lot has changed.

2 yeas ago was a massively transformative time for me personally, I wasn’t in the best place mentally and I would say it was the hardest time in my life. I decided to make some big changes, including getting sober and with the support of my beautiful family and friends I’ve done nothing but grow ever since and the Nimbin Apothecary has grown right along side me.

Something new is coming 21.2.26 watch this space

You can find Jen’s amazing artworks at the which can now be found down at the .. it’s an experience all in itself x

We’re not big on flashy resolutions around here.
But we do believe in seasons turning and setting some intentions for this Luna Year of the Fire Horse

This Lunar New Year we are clearing the clutter. Watering what matters. Growing our strengths while we keep showing up for our community
And most excitingly we are shedding something old to bring to you something new … watch this space !!

From my family to you and yours, I hope this year allows for everything you need one day at a time

Fiona’s last week at the Nimbin Apothecary 😢

Fiona has been working at the Nimbin Apothecary for over 13 years. Fiona has brought so much to the business as a qualified naturopath, an exceptional herbalist, and one of the most caring and nurturing people I know. But mostly a wonderful friend.

Many in our community have received Fiona’s wonderful love and care over our counter and I know she will be missed terribly.

Fiona’s last day with us will be this Wednesday the 17th September. Come in to wish her well in her next adventure.

I am eternally grateful for you Fiona, Love you loads ###
