Apothecary Services

​🌿 “Recipe in hand" blending service - $3

Have a recipe for an herbal tea blend, tincture blend, or powder blend?  We are happy to put this together for you!  See what herbs we carry here  and e-mail us to order at [email protected].

🌿 "Over the counter" formulation service - $10

If you know you're looking for a blend, but don't quite know the exact quantities of herbs, we can help!  For example, say someone suggested you take a blend of dandelion, nettle and red clover as a tea but you don't have the proportions, or say someone recommended valerian and passionflower for sleep but you don't know how much of each.  In these cases, we can have a quick chat and come up with a formulation.  If the conversation is more involved, we'll refer you to a clinical consultation.  Feel free to come on into the shop and talk with a staff person behind the counter for this service, or contact us at 802-540-0595, [email protected].  Customers will need to sign a general release form for this service.

​🌿 Client formulations (free for practitioners!)

Are you an herbalist, naturopathic doctor, acupuncturist or other provider that works with clients?  Do you want your clients to recommend an herbal blend for your clients?  We can put together these for you at no cost.  You can see what herbs we carry here.  Go to our practitioner page here to learn how to sign up in our system and order formulas.

If you are a client and have been referred to us, please either ask your practitioner to contact us with the formula, or if you have an exact blend already written out you can e-mail us at [email protected] to order.
