Everything I make has a backbone deeply rooted and connected to the Earth. I’ve been growing medicinal herbs and plants since 2015, first on an Urban farm with my dear friend a fierce Herbalist, Jessyloo, onto what has been the last 6 years at Shewatuck farms in Exeter. I’m moving farms this year, and so excited my new farm home! More on that soon.
•
I’m passionate and committed to put out into the world, creations that are rooted in my ancestry, in my herbalism, and in my farming/growing and knowing these plants intimately, the way you can only through direct relationship. Growing the plants that I use in all my formulation is a key part of those creations💕🌿.
•
Deep passion, knowledge of the plants, love and stewardship for our Earth will always be a huge part of every formulation.

Making/straining the Dittany of Crete oil today☀️
•
This potent and precious plant/herb was wild harvested in Crete on my last visit from my lovely local Cretan herbalist/friend . It has been used for Millennia in Crete both internally and topically for its deep therapeutic effects. Internally it is commonly used for inflammatory issues, digestive and respiratory support, and overall immune support. It’s a close cousin to Oregano. It’s endemic to Crete and a protected plant, I feel incredibly fortunate and grateful to have it as an ally and companion. It’s a member of the mint family ( doesn’t contain menthol, though). It’s super high in carvacrol and thymol, two terpenes known for their antispasmodic effects. So the oil makes a great addition to a pain ointment or salve. It’s super beautiful in person, a variety of greens, blues, almost grey, and slightly fuzzy.
•
Known also as “the wound healer” it is dedicated to the goddess of hunting, Artemis to heal the wounds caused by arrows.
•
I will blend this super potent extract I made with other skin healing warriors such as my super potent Calendula extract, and my Frankincense +Mastic oil extracts ( still infusing) to make a gorgeous skin living facial cream, and combine it with other infusions I have brewing such as St.Johns wort, Comfrey, and Chickweed as part of a formula for a healing salve. More on that soon.
•
The process to make this oil is slow. But that’s what I do best…slow, intentional botanical beauty. Swipe to see the various stages. The Dittany has been infused in organic Jojoba oil. You can see how it went from a golden yellow to the deepest emerald green, so rich in constituents. This oil is pure magic.
