About NSB

My dream for this shop is simple: I want to create and share beautiful, nourishing, simple herbal products that make people happy. 

I started making small batch skincare products over a decade ago; I wanted the things I used to contain only natural, wholesome, recognizable ingredients that I felt really good about putting on my skin. I began studying herbalism at around the same time, getting to know the plants that grew around me and forming a deep relationship with the land.

This knowledge of, and friendship with, the plants and the earth where I live informs and influences what I make; many of my ingredients are ethically and responsibly harvested in the wild, at the peak of the plant's energy and with profound gratitude. All of my products are made by hand in very small batches, and my inventory changes with the seasons based on what is growing outside. 

I believe reconnecting with the land where we live is the best way to heal our world and dream it into something better; when you love something and truly know it, you take better care of it.

The plants are there for us in so many ways, not the least of which is helping us take care of our beautiful selves. Using pure, natural herbal products is a way to nourish our skin and connect our animal bodies back to the land.

I hope some of the wildness, magic and blessing that lives in the green world shows in the all the things I make, and that it will be passed along to you.

Be well,
