WHY STUDY HERBALISM?

Herbalism is founded on the principles of environmentalism: the Earth is our home, it grows organic matter that our bodies recognize as food and medicine, the more we can reconnect to this organic rhythm, the more we will flourish.

Herbalism empowered me to reclaim ownership of my health; it taught me the ancestral stories of how plants heal; it evolved how I interact with nature.

It starts with an intuition, a desire to tap into an ancient wisdom. It is an echo from your ancestors. It starts with a love of nature and the outdoors; with working with your hands.

Perhaps it is the welcoming community of fellow plant loving herb nerds! Or maybe you have no idea whatsoever why you're here...but here you are.

Anyone can be an Herbalist.

WHAT IS NATURAL PRODUCT FORMULATION?

Formulation is a method of invention, using set parameters known to create desired results, while still allowing for modifications to the individual ingredients. Created by the cosmetic chemist industry, formulation is now reinvented by natural cosmetic formulators using safe, non-toxic, and naturally derived ingredients.

WHY NATURAL

Perhaps you are already aware of the “green washing” happening in the natural beauty space: Cosmetic chemists are scrambling to stay relevant as the beauty industry demands natural products. But organic and natural ingredients are foreign to these chemists, so they use their same chem-heavy formulas with the addition of a few natural extracts and package it to look the part, while the majority of the ingredients contained within remain known and proven carcinogens.

Mastering the art and science of natural product formulation gives you the power to ensure the quality and safety if your products. You can plug your desired ingredients, scents, and homemade extracts into formula sheets of your own design; you will have the freedom to produce anything you can dream up, in your desired batch size, time and time again.
