As much as I love trying to do everything myself, there are always things that I need to pick up on the wonderfully convenient world wide web. These are my absolute favorite places to browse.
Mountain Rose Herbs I love, love, love this company. They are very sustainable, green, organic, and source from local places as often as possible. A lot of their herbs are grown on site in their herb farm. Their customer service is awesome- do not hesitate to call them, they are super friendly and don’t make you jump through hoops, press buttons, or talk to a robot. Their herbs are always fresh, their apothecary items are beautifully packaged, the gifts are unique, they’ve got supplies, books, everything you could ever need, they carry. Mountain Rose Herbs has a wonderful newsletter, not to mention the catalogs are beautiful and informative too. One of my favorite features to their website is the MONTHLY SPECIALS. You can always find great deals here. This month’s (febuary) is especially great as I am thinking of ordering almost everything on there!! So check it out!! Red Moon Herbs I have enjoyed seeing this company grow so beautifully since I was first introduced to it in 2003. The owner and co-founder Corina Wood was my first ever Herb Teacher. She teaches a “Wise Woman Immersion” course that is a week long trip into the plant world. She has also started the South East Women’s Herbal Conference that is a huge event held every october it is a weekend to celebrate women, plants, and yourself while camping in beautiful Lake Eden, NC. Red Moon Herbs offers a small variety of herbs making it the best, potent, and magical source. They carry bulk herbs, elixers, vinegars, as well as books on wise women health and healing. A lot of their products are grown right in house in the Red Moon Herbs garden on the Earth Haven Eco village in Black Mountain NC. Aroma Tools Aroma Tools is going to have everything you need to use your essential oils. It offers great business tools and charts to help spread the info about essential oils. They carry just about any container you could need as well as great carrying cases and storage for your essential oils. Aroma Tools also offers miscellaneous items like jewelry, massage tables and accessories, and even water bottles. Amazon There really isn’t anything you can’t find on Amazon. You obviously want to get your herbs from great sources from the ones mentioned above. But Amazon is going to have just about anything else you may need. Its also a great source for cheap/free kindle books. Kindle books make it great to have all of your herb references on hand and easy to access all of the time. You can also find great new agey gift stuff like candles, incense, tarot cards, and even gem stones in bulk!! Good ole Local New Age Stores Almost every town is going to have a local New Age Book Store and they usually carry a lot of stuff other than books like candles, gem stones, and incense. Health Food Stores are also now carrying these items. They also usually offer classes and are great places to hold your own class. So get out in your community and share what you’ve learned! You’d be surprised how many people will be interested!! As always, thanks for your interest!!
