Box Contents:

Fire Cider Tonic
apple cider vinegar, onion, ginger, horseradish, garlic, jalapeno, cayenne, thyme, honey
A spicy, pungent and slightly sweet concoction made from all fresh, organic ingredients, local honey, and raw apple cider vinegar. It will warm you up while also helping you ward off cold and flu. It combines herbs that are anti-viral, anti-bacterial, anti-inflammatory, and boost immune function. It helps open up clogged sinuses and break down congestion. Fire cider really gets the circulatory system moving, helping your body remove pathogens, infection, and wastes. If you are feeling a cold coming on, take a tablespoon every few hours. Otherwise, take a tablespoon full once or twice daily as a tonic. You may want to dilute your dose with water, or add honey to your liking. Add some fire cider to olive oil to make a delicious dressing for salads, vegetables, or noodles. Try it in kombucha, or add some to a bloody Mary!

Choice of Salve: Turmeric or Skin Restoration Salve

Turmeric Salve

turmeric, olive oil, beeswax 

Turmeric helps to counter inflammation, and brings circulation to the area applied. This salve can be helpful for stiff and sore joints/muscles, arthritis, and other conditions involving inflammation, pain, and/or swelling. 

Skin Restoration Salve

chickweed, plantain, cleavers, cottonwood bud resin, olive oil, beeswax
Soothes the often painful itching, irritation, and inflammation associated with severely dry skin conditions, eczema, and dermatitis. This salve contains herbs which move lymph and can help with bursitis and sub-dermal cysts. We wild-crafted the herbs in this salve this Spring, so that we could keep using them through the harsh, drying winter months!

Lavender & Hops Eye Pillow
hops, chamomile, lavender

Take some time for conscious relaxation with this lavender and hops eye pillow! Great for meditation, yoga nidra, and general facial relaxation too. Hand sewn and stuffed by us!

Immune-Building Chai Tea Blend

reishi mushroom, astragalus root, dandelion root, rooibos, rosehips, cinnamon, cardamom, cloves, ginger, black pepper, nutmeg
This chai has all the traditional spices and flavors, but replaces black tea with rooibos and some very fine herbs for the immune system. We wild-crafted the dandelion roots ourselves, no lie! Reishis, astragalus, and dandelion support immune function by helping T-cells (our body's defenders against pathogens) to proliferate. In addition to fine tuning the immune system, these herbs also improve liver function and circulation. To prepare 2 or 3 cups at a time, make a decoction: bring to a boil one heaping tablespoon full of chai herbs and one quart of water, then reduce the heat and keep your pot on a low simmer for 20-30 minutes. Add a few tablespoons of milk, turn up heat to bring the liquid just to a boil, remove from heat, strain the liquid, and add honey to taste. Sit with your chai as it cools, inhaling its steam and aroma, so comforting and warming. Enjoyed daily, this blend will give your immune system great support.

Samhain Body Bars
elder leaf infused olive oil, cocoa butter, shea butter, beeswax

Delightfully moisturizing and soothing for dry skin, callouses, cuticles, and more. If you rub the bar between your hands for a few seconds and warm it up to body temp, it becomes more balmy/spreadable. We hope you enjoy our skull and heart molds as much as we do!

Coconut Chocolate Truffles
coconut flakes, coconut oil, sunflower seed butter, honey, truffle oil, dark chocolate, cocoa powder
Mmmmmm, chocolate! Chocolate and truffle oil are both said to be aphrodisiacs. Enjoy!
