- About Us-
Our Beginnings
When a woman in the Appalachian Mountains skilled in everything from raising herds of goats and sheep to growing fields of luscious vegetables, told me to rub a dainty little flower all over my arms to prevent poison ivy breakout, my eyes opened then to a new reality. I became the recipient of historical knowledge of how the earth provides us with powerful living remedies for hundreds of ailments and irritations. A journey into the art of locating, harvesting, drying and infusing plant life for improving appearance and ease of movement without discomfort had begun. A simple salve for relieving the spread and itch of poison ivy expanded into relieving other types of discomfort and beautifying the skin with rich organic plant based preparations.
The potential to positively aid in the prevention of athletic injuries by use pre-event was clear, making it a locker room must have for sports teams. Post athletic events, these body aids touted a special quality, a natural well researched ability to reduce inflammation thereby reducing discomfort post competition.
