Did we brrrr 🥶 our way through that weekend up here in the north west!
A new week, and we are halfway through this short month already!
As the early stirrings of spring begin, this is often when the body feels the echoes of winter most — in tired muscles, stiff joints, and lingering tension.
Our Herbal Comfort Salve was created to bring warmth and ease during these in-between seasonal moments.

This particular blend was created to:
🌿 Soothe tired muscles
🌿 Support joint comfort
🌿 Encourage circulation
🌿 Bring gentle warmth where it’s needed most

Offering herbal support while the body slowly moves from winter stillness toward spring renewal.
A small daily ritual of care, in tune with the season 🌱

Finally, got some seasonal gift boxes back on the website with all your favourites 🌿
Suiting all budgets, each box with handpicked combinations to suit everyone.

Treat yourself or a gift to someone who deserves a bit of natural care and tlc💚
And also—try the new herbal foot balm. Rich, soothing, and made with lovely local seasonal herbs.

I had so many comments on the colours of my salves last weekend from visitors to my stall - the colours are so vibrant because I only use whole plant in the oil infusions. I dont add extras! And I only use a limited amount of essential oils in certain salves.

All the herbs used for my salves are from our own garden, and some are foraged locally.
I think this certainly enhances the potency and colour, as im not using mass-produced herbs or ones that have been dried and stored for years.
So you can be reassured what you buy is straight from my garden - I only make small batches at a time, so what you get is a salve that has been freshly made, retaining all the herbal benefits. As it should.

Have a lovely weekend 🌼🌼🌿

Chickweed Balm stole the show over the weekend! Something told me to bring double Chickweed Balms than the others, which I did, and I came home with an empty box! 🌿
Good for me, but it's horrible to see so many suffering with skin issues.

If you haven't tried it, it's extremely soothing and beneficial for psoriasis, eczema, and contact dermatitis type skin. It really is a wonder balm with just 3 ingredients. You will notice the difference within one or 2 applications.

There's still 10% off online for the rest of today. Use the code: imbolc at checkout.

Thanks to all who visited, and stopped and chatted over the weekend. It was lovely to meet you all.

And a shout out to

This is our lovely Comfrey salve, derived from plants grown wild and free in rich nutritious soil—no chemicals, no pesticides, just pure plant medicine, the way nature intended.
I believe skincare starts at the root, which is why I grow my own herbs organically.
Comfrey has been Ireland's secret for generations. All you need is to read the Duchas archives—rich in allantoin to soothe, heal, and renew your skin naturally.
From seed to garden, to salve, keeping it pure & potent. 🍃

Herb Garden is looking a bit dismal! BUT looking back at last summers Bounty has me eager to get going again! 70% of my plants will just return when they're ready to come out of hibernation! I've learnt to let nature be. There are plenty of seeds to start Calendula, Comfrey, Chamomile, Poppies Cornflowers, and massive amounts of wildflowers seeds! and of course, I will have new orders of medicinal plants coming along, no doubt!! Wonder can I outdo myself with my Calendula planting this year!! Roll on the orange blooms🧡🌿🌼

I've been quiet on here lately, but I've been busy behind the scenes. I’ve recently made a change to my herbal salves — switching the base oil from sweet almond oil to extra virgin olive oil, which is deeply nourishing, incredibly stable, and rich in antioxidants.
It’s also gentler for sensitive skin and more suitable for those with nut allergies - Main reason in doing so, as so many children use these balms for skin issues.
Same herbs. Same intention. Even better nourishment.
Thank you for trusting my work and growing with me 🌿🌼
