Raelyn’s interest in herbs for more than just cooking started as a way to find a more natural way of healing for herself and her partner, who both prefer a more nature-based way of life. She began learning about the health benefits natural herbs provided and the fact that they have less scary side-effects than pharmaceuticals was EXTREMELY appealing. Rae began to truly study and learn how to grow and harvest her own herbs, mix her own recipes and create her own tinctures. truly loved the process but, there was one major problem. So many of the tinctures were made with alcohol. Having many friends and family members in different recovery based programs, she wanted to find a “Recovery Friendly” means to help those she loved. This apothecary is truly created with them in mind and is for ALL who need it.
