My journey into herbal medicine goes back quite a ways, but it wasn’t always as deep as it is now. When I was 9, I suffered from severe, chronic headaches that no medication could relieve. I spent a lot of time in hospitals, including having three spinal taps. At one point, I developed Steven Johnson’s Syndrome due to a medication reaction, which left both internal and external scars. I was overdosed by a pediatric neurologist, which shut down my kidneys and liver. For years, my liver didn’t function properly, but I’m happy to say it has fully recovered for the last 7 years.

After experiencing adverse reactions to vaccines, I stopped receiving them. My parents took me to an herbalist during that time, and we started incorporating more natural remedies, but I took it a step further than they did. When my oldest child was born, she nearly died from her vaccinations and I had to perform CPR twice because she stopped breathing. An older doctor tested both of us for MTHFR, a genetic mutation that makes vaccines, certain medicines, and even some vitamins toxic to us. This explained both my reactions and hers.

From there, I felt compelled to detoxify both myself and my children, which led me to fully embrace herbal medicine. I had two more children after that and made my own prenatal vitamins. After having two C-sections, I didn’t take any medication for recovery; I relied solely on herbal medicine. I left the hospital just 24 hours after my first C-section and 19 hours after the second. Now, my home is completely herbal and we no longer use any pharmaceutical medications.

Herbs work as medicine by supporting and enhancing the body's natural healing processes. They contain active compounds that interact with the body’s systems, helping to restore balance and address underlying health concerns. For example, some herbs have anti-inflammatory properties, while others boost immune function, improve digestion, or promote relaxation.

It’s important to remember that every person is unique, and what works for one individual may not have the same effect on another. Factors such as genetics, lifestyle, and overall health can influence how a person responds to herbs. However, the beauty of herbal medicine is that there are always options. Whether you're seeking support for stress, immunity, digestion, or other concerns, there are many herbs to explore and find the right match for your body’s needs.

I am not a doctor and cannot provide medical advice. It's important for each parent or caregiver to do their own research to determine which herbs are appropriate for their children. That being said, I offer alcohol-free blends that are specifically formulated for kids, and many of our salves and syrups are safe for children as well. I personally use tinctures with my own kids, but this is ultimately a decision that each parent must make based on their comfort level.

If you're concerned about the alcohol content in tinctures, there is an evaporation method that can be used to remove the alcohol. To do this, you can place the tincture in a warm water bath (not boiling) and allow it to evaporate for a few minutes. This reduces the alcohol content, while still keeping the herbal properties intact. Most tincture doses for children are 1 ml or less, which tends to be a very small amount, but it’s always best to check the specific recommendations for each product.

As always, it's important to consult with a healthcare professional before introducing any new remedies to your child’s routine.

Many of the products I offer are grown right here on my property. I'm fortunate to live on 80 acres, much of which is full of the herbs I forage and cultivate myself. For the herbs I can't grow, I source them from other small, family-owned businesses that share my commitment to quality and sustainability. All of the herbs I use are pesticide-free, ensuring that you receive the purest, most natural products possible.

I take great care in selecting only the highest-quality ingredients, and I personally oversee the entire process from plant to product. This dedication to sourcing and quality control helps ensure that you’re getting safe, effective herbal remedies that you can trust. Your health and safety are my top priorities, and I strive to offer products that are both beneficial and free of harmful chemicals.

If you're allergic to an ingredient, simply message us, and we can create a custom order for you by removing or replacing the herb you're allergic to. Your safety is a priority, and we're happy to accommodate your needs. Additionally, we take extra care in sanitizing our equipment between each product to ensure everything is clean and safe for you. Please feel free to reach out with any concerns!
