We are a small artisan company that provides handcrafted medicinal herb products (teas, tinctures, herbal- infused honey & herbal balms) known as "herb simples" from wild herbs ethically and sustainably wildcrafted. We operate on 3 guiding principles:
#1
Celebrate the wild without harm
Like many herbalists, most of our plants are wild-harvested as wild plants usually offer the most benefit. Our harvest partner process ensures that no endangered plants are harvested and wild plant stands are managed without overharvest. Un clear sourcing is a concern, also. Herbs are harvested from places with clear ownership and clear permission. The herb's locality of origin, not just the country, is listed on the label.
#2
Conservation of wild spaces
We work with a small group of harvest partners and every harvest partner (aka partner farm) agrees to set aside a portion of land that is left completely alone for Mother Nature to manage. Our goal is to create a micro network of wild habitat. We lightheartedly call this our "Pockets of Purity" Plan© We need our wild spaces--and so do the birds and pollinators. Think of it as Rewilding on a Micro Scale.
#3
Cool teas from clean locations
Teas, & all our herbal products, are small batch & handcrafted from herbs harvested from environmentally & energetically clean locations, like Wild Blackberry Leaf, Solidago Leaf and Agrimony.

No chemicals
Harvested wild plants come from areas that have not been chemically treated or adulterated or treated with synthetic fertilizer and not adjacent to chemically treated environments or areas treated with synthetic fertilizers or herbicides
Supporting organizations that do good work to protect birds, pollinators, & endangered medicinal plants
As we grow, 10% of net profits annually will go to 501(c)3 organizations that support protection for pollinators, endangered medicinal plants and wild bird habitat. We are a business member of United Plant Savers. Another fantastic group is American Bird Conservancy, both great organizations! Check them out and support them!
Fair payment to partner farms/harvest partners
Small farms, especially those that follow and promote regenerative agricultural practices, help with the web of life. Fair payment is the right thing to do and important to our corporate ethos: this is our do, not say approach.
Biodiversity and wildness should be promoted everywhere!
Our harvest partners are currently in Virginia and Arizona. Interested in joining the team? Check out our harvest partner page and reach out!
Note: you don't have to be a harvest partner to participate: See our Rewilding on a Micro Scale blog above for some ideas to bring a little wildness into your life!
