A healthy start in in healthy forest!

It starts on pristine, remote,& wild lands and with the natural alchemy of plants, water and soil. We work in healthy forests, rich in biodiversity. We harvest in places where & there are often times a hundred different species, all intertwined and interacting chemically. This wild, natural interaction between species to produce some of the best medicine plants on earth. In competing for light and nutrients wild plants grow stronger than those row cropped, or cultivated in a field or garden.

Grows wild and healthy

Guided by generational wisdom personal&experience, and modern science

Our harvests are perfectly timed for the maixium phyto chemicals in the plant. Sometimes, flower heads have so much oil that it could litereally be squeezed out by hand. We know the proper time to pick each species very thoughtfully plan our year's production based on&the perfect timing.

Guide: No plant before its time or after its prime.

Distillation Method

We seperate the living plant material from the boiling flask. No dumpting plant material into a can of boiling water, here!

We are grateful to Gary @ heart magic, who has worked with us since the begining!

The following comes from Gary's Distillation site.:


Maintaining the entire biocontainer at exactly boiling temperature (100c) during production is very important for obtaining maximum quality and quantity of both essential oil and hydrosol. For big systems this usually isn't practical. Big remote steam-fed bio-chambers are usually just sitting out in open air, which by definition allows their walls to be cooled by that air, so some water condensation on the inside of those walls is always going to occur.


Any water that ends up in the biocontainer robs you of potential hydrosol, and also renders any biomaterial it comes in contact with undistillable, and the biomass touching the chamber walls may not get properly distilled at all.
It's a difficult problem... insulating the biocontainer is an answer, but costly and physically cumbersome. Also, in large steam-fed distillers that use separate steam generators, there a continual dance of controlling pressure and temperature of the steam going into the biochamber- tricky to get right.

We've come up with a deceptively clever way around all of this...to keep the biocontainer dry and insulated and not have to hassle with steam pressure or temperature, we simply put the entire biocontainer inside of the boiling chamber!!
Quite different than simply chucking the biomass into the same vessel as the boiling water, we build an entirely separate housing inside of the boiling chamber, and then put the biomass in that "inner" housing.
It makes sense... this way the entire biocontainer is surrounded inside and out by 100 degree steam- Thus the entire system works at exactly 100 degrees c, and the biocontainer stays dry because it cannot condense any water on it's walls.

Please note the words "witch hazel" can mean any one of a number of formulas made from the plant.

The common formula is witch hazel USP - this is what you find on the shelf at stores.

Here is the formula for that product please note acid is a required additive. 

To make witch hazel INCI (International Nomenclature of Cosmetic Ingredients) add 14% alcohol.
Not intended to treat or cure any disease or condition of the human body, non- witch hazel USP.
No additives, no preservatives, NON - STANDARDIZED - just as it comes from the plant.

This is one of the most wonderful products I have ever produced.When you make a cake, you cannot pull out the eggs any longer. This statement explains co-distillation.  In putting two plants, witch hazel and lemon balm, into the distiller we blend them together so that they are one.  Others might add essential oil to industrial witch hazel and it simply not the same.  Our lemon balm is wild harvested from a local property and taken right to the still and layered in with witch hazel leaf . Pre-distilled water is used and the ratio of 1 lb per pint remains true. Extremely refreshing and calming - a complete winner .Our witch hazel is 100% botanically certified and alcohol free. Sustainably harvested, distilled,   on our wild crops farm. Fragrant and powerful. Incredibly fresh - the new harvest just in! No additives, no preservatives, no alcohol. Contains only witch hazel,wild harvested lemon balm and distilled water. In stock.  This product is not made from pulp wood, like commercial witch hazel and is nothing at all like the industrial version in the grocery.
