I will arise and go now, and go to Innisfree,
And a small cabin build there, of clay and wattles made:
Nine bean-rows will I have there, a hive for the honey-bee,
And live alone in the bee-loud glade.
And I shall have some peace there, for peace comes dropping slow,
Dropping from the veils of the morning to where the cricket sings;
There midnight’s all a glimmer, and noon a purple glow,
And evening full of the linnet’s wings.
I will arise and go now, for always night and day
I hear lake water lapping with low sounds by the shore;
While I stand on the roadway, or on the pavements grey,
I hear it in the deep heart’s core.
The Herbal Dispensary has put together a special cottage kit which can be brought to the cottage for convenient use. The kit also makes an ideal cottage host gift! The kit contains:
Arnica Salve (ointment): This hand made salve can be used as a topical healing salve for bumps and bruises. 50 mls jar.
Lavender pure essential oil: Lavender oil is rather like a medicine cabinate in a wee bottle. Ideal for dabbing on scrapes, minor burns and insect bites. Lavender essential oil can also be used to promote relaxation when a few drops are added to the bath or shower. 10 ml bottle with dropper.
Natural After bite spray: Our hand blended spay is made with pure essential oils. The natural anti-itch effects can be used to sooth and to heal those bothersome bites. 60 ml bottle.
Rhus Tox 30: Homeopathic pellets. Rhus Tox is a homeopathic remedy which is commonly used after poison ivy exposure. Two pellets can be taken under the tongue twice per day.
Herbal tea blend: One loose leaf herbal tea package of your choice. Choices include Good Night tea, Tranquili-Tea, Willow tea for aches, Cramp Ease tea, Sunshine tea for uplifting the mood, Bladder Soothe Tea, Children’s Tea, or Tummy Tea for digestion.
Cost $49.95.

Healthy Planet, small foot print practices: The Herbal Clinic & Dispensary encourages that you bring in your used herbal tea pouches and clean glass-wear for personal reuse. Please bring in your own carrier bags for produces purchased from the dispensary, as the dispensary does not provide plastic bags and uses paper only if requested. We use Green Shift recycled, compostable packaging and try to keep packaging to an absolute minimum. We use energy efficient lighting and keep 96% of our lights off when not in use.
