  • An Apothecary is a space focused on herbal medicine, providing community care by trained herbalists. We cannot cure, treat, or diagnose any specific conditions, but we can make suggestions, help manage symptoms, and provide holistic health education. At an Apothecary you will also find ready-made staples include bulk herbs, teas, tinctures, topicals, tonics, and other goodies like candles, incense, and soap.

  • Yes! Quality medicine always starts with quality ingredients. We maintain the highest integrity for sourcing organic herbs and ingredients.
