Spring greetings to all!
After a busy winter season and more snow that I can remember, I feel we are at last coming out of hibernation mode. Spring is in the air and I think that everyone is looking forward to the warmer, greener months ahead.
Here at the dispensary we have been busy making natural bath salts and fizzies, herbal moisturizing creams and salves, and new fragrant “Lover’s” body oils and bath goodies for Valentine’s Day. We have perfected our much-in-demand lip balm by adding a wee bit more creamy cocoa butter, and feel confident in saying that our current recipe is our best yet.
In anticipation of the months ahead, we are focusing on spring tonic teas and herbal cleansing blends. We also invite you to view our Herbal Cleansing Guide, as many have found this to be a helpful introduction to a sensible herbal cleanse.
We look forward to seeing you soon.

Come Slowly
Come slowly, Eden
Lips unused to thee.
Bashful, sip thy jasmines,
As the fainting bee,
Reaching late his flower,
Round her chamber hums,
Counts his nectars—alights,
And is lost in balms!
—Emily Dickinson
