We do it because we believe in the power of plants and the positive impact a natural lifestyle can have on a life. Over the years, we've blossomed into more than just an herbal apothecary to a shop full of food and medicinal products geared toward achieving natural wellness -- we even care for pets! Though our store may have gotten an updated look, and our staff's always seeking the best new products, we've never lost sight of what's important to us: the health of our community.

Rose Petals: Floral Comfort for the Heart

Without a doubt, the aromatic rose is a timeless symbol of love and romance. Indeed,
the beautiful blooms have long been associated with the heart – comforting, uplifting, and grounding. Ancient cultures, including the Romans, even used rose petals as nourishment for the literal heart. And modern herbal wisdom continues to honor their gentle power.

Today, rose buds & petals are commonly used to:

• Support a positive, balanced mood

• Gently calm the nervous system

• Ease head and tension-related discomfort

Fragrant and deeply comforting, rose offers a simple way to invite care and calm into everyday moments

Chinese Hawthorn: Nature's Herbal Heart Helper

Heart health takes center stage this month. Throughout February, we’re highlighting trusted botanicals traditionally used to support the heart and cardiovascular system. By far one of the best-known heart tonics is Hawthorn.
 
Why Hawthorn Has Earned Its Reputation

For centuries, herbalists have turned to Hawthorn as a premier heart tonic. The leaves, flowers, and berries have all been traditionally used to strengthen and nourish the heart and circulatory system. Hawthorn is valued for its ability to support:

Healthy cardiovascular function

Circulation and blood flow

Arterial health

Healthy blood lipid levels

Why Choose Chinese Hawthorn

There are well over 200 species of Crataegus or Hawthorn shrubs. In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), Crataegus pinnatifida, or Chinese Hawthorn, has a documented history of use dating back thousands of years (records trace its use as far back as the 7th millennium BCE).

Our Chinese Hawthorn leaf extract powder is standardized to provide vitexin, a naturally occurring plant compound shown to support healthy blood flow by encouraging relaxed, healthy blood vessels.

HERB SPOTLIGHT
Graviola Leaf: Tropical Immune Tea

Native to warm, tropical regions, the Graviola tree is best known for its spiky green fruit - soursop or guanabana. The fruit is enjoyed fresh or as a juice throughout the Caribbean, Brazil, and other parts of South America.

Graviola leaves, though, have been used as a natural immune and wellness support, valued for their protective properties at the cellular level. Modern research is now taking a closer look at why.

Graviola leaves contain unique plant compounds known as acetogenins, which studies suggest may help support healthy cell growth and function. In addition, the leaves are rich in naturally-occurring antioxidant compounds that help neutralize free radicals and support overall cellular balance.

Why Herbalists Love Graviola Leaf

Supports healthy cell function

Provides antioxidant protection

Traditional immune support

No doubt about it, Graviola leaf is an herbal ally for those seeking to support cellular and deep immune health.

HERB SPOTLIGHT
Chicory Root

Decoction: Add 1 teaspoon of Chicory root to a cup of cold water; bring to a boil, simmer for approximately 15 minutes. Strain.

Note: Chicory root has an earthy, slightly bitter taste; add Cinnamon for a naturally sweet flavor, ginger for a warming, spicy kick, and sweet orange peel for a zesty, complex flavor.

Herbal Coffee: While we offer roasted Chicory root, the purists among us may prefer to roast their own to create custom herbal coffee blends. It’s super easy:

1.Preheat oven to 275–300°F

2.Spread thin layers of chicory root on a baking sheet; roast 10 minutes for a light roast; 20-30 minutes for a dark, bolder roast; stir occasionally for an even roast

3.Take them out once they become dark brown and have a coffee-like aroma

4.Once cooled, you can either grind the dried pieces and use them in a coffee pot or French press or brew by the cup.
