Hormone balance tea has been a super help...

“Are there microplastics in tea bags?” I spent all last week answering this question in my many tea and herb groups on Facebook.

We often get asked about the safety of tea bags and always recommend avoiding them due to plastics. In fact, microplastics are the main reason that we only sell loose-...

I’ve always been an advocate of taking care of our own health as much as possible in a non-emergency situation (when there’s no extreme bleeding, you don’t have a broken bone, etc.). With too many personal experiences of doctors letting me down or prescribing me something that didn’t solve the root ...

While new herbs interest me (and I love to study them) I don’t particularly care for rare ones that are hard to get.

Winter brings so much beauty—snow-covered landscapes, crimson berries, and evenings spent by a warm fire. But it’s also the time of year when we might experience the occasional discomfort of scratchy throats or stuffy noses.

When that happens, a warm cup of herbal tea can be a comforting part of yo...

If you’re struggling with things like fatigue, brain fog, or pain, one of the first things to take a closer look at is your diet!

We always feel our best when we enjoy a diet of healthy, whole, in-season foods, and it isn’t a coincidence. Study after study shows that eating seasonally and focusi...

We’ve long sung the praises of elderberry here on the blog! We love it in syrup for pancakes, in chia pudding, and even in homemade sea moss gummies. Not only are elderberries delicious, but they also boast numerous medicinal and health benefits. One of the better ways of consuming it is in homemade...

This time of year, the colds and flu are around more than we would like, and they have us dreaming of warmer summer days when we have bugs and humidity to deal with instead. While many of us have seen those bright, colorful cough drops at the grocery store as part of the cold and flu care section, w...

Love the Starbucks®  drink popularly referred to as Medicine Ball by customers, but don’t love having to run out to the coffee shop and spend a ton of money on it? You’re speaking our language.
