Another incredibly thoughtful review from one of our most loyal customers 🤍

It’s easy to simply buy and use a product—but we recognize the intention it takes to pause, snap a photo, and share your experience.

Those small acts of support truly mean everything to a small business like ours. Each review, each order… they all matter more than you might realize.

If there’s a product or small business you absolutely love, consider this a gentle nudge to leave them a little feedback. It might mean the world to a real human on the other side of that backlit screen. 🙌🌱✨💫🌀 And humans need to support each other now more than ever. 🙏

Tis the season! 🌱💫💗 Albeit a bit early this year. Plants are waking up here in southern Colorado, especially after the little bit of precipitation we’ve had! Foraging season is about to be in full swing - so here are some simple reminders for how to wildcraft sustainably to ensure our native plants thrive for generations to come. 🥰

Fresh batch of Piñon Pinekeeper’s Drawing Salve 🌲

Yes… the little pinecones on top are undeniably adorable.
But they’re not just there for looks.

At the heart of Ecozoica is something deeper than making high-quality, wildcrafted herbal products—it’s about reconnecting people with the plants themselves.

There’s a quiet but powerful shift that happens when you meet the plant you’re using as medicine. When you smell the resin on your fingers, notice the shape of a cone, or learn the landscape it calls home—it stops being just an ingredient, and becomes a relationship.

In many traditional healing systems—from Amazonian plant dietas to folk herbalism across Europe and North America—healing wasn’t just about taking a remedy. It was about engaging with the plant as a teacher, a presence, a living ally.

That’s the thread I’m always trying to weave back in.

Through workshops, plant walks, writing… and yes, even placing a tiny pinecone on top of a salve jar.

A small invitation to remember the tree behind the medicine 🌲✨

🌿✨ Vendor Spotlight: Ecozoica Apothecary ✨🌿

We’re honored to welcome Ecozoica Apothecary to 🌿 🌸 Roots & Renewal Faire 🌸 🌿 on Saturday, March 21 🌱

Ecozoica is an off-grid herbal operation rooted in the Sangre de Cristo Mountains of southern Colorado, stewarding an 11-acre homestead and crafting small-batch plant medicines using solar power, local materials, and a deep ethic of ecological reciprocity.

The work is guided by bioregional herbalism — honoring the traditional uses of native plants while actively caring for the ecosystems those plants come from.

Every product begins in relationship:
🌿 Slow, ethical wildcrafting
🌱 Long, intentional herbal infusions
🌎 A commitment to keeping plant communities thriving for generations

At Roots & Renewal, Ecozoica will also be bringing props and tools that demonstrate how herbal medicine was traditionally made, offering a glimpse into the old-fashioned methods behind the process — from plant preparation to slow herbal infusions.

You’ll also find a wide range of botanical offerings including:

🌿 Herbal first aid kits for outdoor adventurers
🌼 Healing salves and herbal liniments
🌱 Botanical body care and hydrosol-based hair care
🌸 Tinctures, elixirs, infused honeys, and herbal tonics
🐾 Herbal pet care products

Ecozoica’s work reflects something we care deeply about at Open Circle — plant medicine rooted in place, stewardship, and relationship with the land.
