Greetings……
We believe
that the answers to some of our current problems; high
cost of food, health care, transportation, global
warming, energy and the shortage of water may be found
in our communities and in our backyards. Over the past
century small family farms have been sold to mega
corporate farms. We believe that this trend must be
reversed through the purchase of local produce and self
sufficiency.
We can all
do our part on a small scale by connecting the lessons
of the past with current technologies and provide for
future generations in a sustainable manner. Our
ancestors had a personal understanding of how plants
could be used to improve one’s health. Today we call
their recipes “folk remedies”. We believe that our
connection with our ancestors and their knowledge is our
birthright. We have an opportunity to reclaim the
knowledge of our grandmothers and grandfathers to
improve our diet and our health.
The
average produce on the American table travels between
1000 to 1500 miles, according to the US Department of
Agriculture. According to the United Nations while the
world has concentrated on improving plants we have done
nothing to improve the quality of the earth in which it
grows. Some medicinal herbs which traditionally have
been wild crafted have been overharvested and now their
populations have come under stress.
On our
website, you will find innovative products that you can
utilize to increase the quantities and yields of both
medicinal and culinary herbs. You can also purchase
herbs and other products that you may not have local
access to or the climate to grow them yourself.
We have an
Herbalist and an Aromatherapist on staff to answer
questions along with affiliates we can rely on, with
many years of combined wisdom.
We believe
that all business is personal and hope that our efforts
will lead to an expanding sense of community and well
being. This web site will always be a work in progress.
We hope we can add to our customer’s knowledge as much
as we know they will add to ours…….
Namaste
With
Your Health in Mind,
