About Us
What are our rootz?
Our plant friends have been helping us improve our health for thousands of years. As drug companies began isolating, reducing and synthesizing plant properties and constituents for economic gain the campaign in the US began in the 1930's to associate herbs with "folklore" and "old wives tales" sowing seeds of doubt with our roots, our herbal health traditions while tending seeds of modernization and sophistication with expensive pharmaceuticals. Is there any irony that modern biomedicine is derived from the very matter deemed old fashioned? Not when you realize one cannot patent a plant.
our rootz is planted in this herbal health tradition, ready to share with you this ancient wisdom. Isn't it time to embrace our rootz?

Did you know?
Our ancestors worked with plants for wellness and good health. Native cultures still embrace this ancient wisdom today but our first teachers were our animal friends as those who came before us observed the plants that wildlife naturally embraced for their own health. This observation showed us that nature is intelligent. It is alive! And we know it is greater as a connected whole vs. reductionist, synthesized parts.
About us
our rootz is a healthy and affordable source for your wellness and vitality. Our products are made with respect for Mother Earth and all her inhabitants. Our humble beginnings started with an aloe plant in my Mothers kitchen in the '70's and her words that "plants respond when you speak to them". Many beautiful teachers have since followed and will continue as the education from plant wisdom is never ending.
You can connect with our rootz the next time you're in Humboldt County at the Farmers Market in Garberville or Fortuna. We also schedule appointments at our Apothecary for individuals seeking specific health regiments.
