{Our Philosophy}

{Our Philosophy}

Activism through Herbalism. This earth needs us vibrantly awake and radiantly well. As plant remedies enhance our own experience of wellness, they foster our reverence for Mother Earth. Acting as a conduit for connection we believe plants have the potential to bridge the gap between ourselves and nature, that they may serve to awaken awareness of non-duality, that there is no separation between us and nature, that We are Nature®.

{Our Values}

{Our Values}

Offering an efficacious product while treading lightly is paramount to all we do. From our continuous pursuit for conscious sourcing, to our dedication to low impact packaging, to the sustainable way we run our stores. Everything we do to elevate your health, is done with Mother Earth in mind.

{Our Commitment}

{Our Commitment}

We wholeheartedly believe that giving back is an essential part of the role we all play in creating a better world.

As part of this ongoing commitment, we have recently partnered with Rainforest Trust, a non-profit organisation that is actively saving endangered wildlife and protecting our planet by creating rainforest reserves.

With every purchase made through our website, we will donate $1 directly to Rainforest Trust, positively impacting our planet’s tropical biodiversity as you honour your health.
