Living with Plants & Herbs
Attuning to the ways plants meet the body through the seasons.
Plants move through the seasons with a clarity we often forget.
They emerge, flourish, recede, and return—each one shaped by the conditions of its time and place, carrying something of the moment in which it appears.
To work with them is not only to use them, but to observe them—to notice when they come, where they grow, and how they meet the body across the seasons.
This is a quiet record of those relationships.
A place to return to a small number of plants, encountered through the year, and worked with simply—in tea, in food, in the home, and in the body—attuning to the rhythms of time and place.
Plant Provisions
A small collection of herbs and preparations to return to through the seasons—chosen for their integrity, sourcing, and relationship to the body.
These are not meant to be exhaustive, but to reflect what is used here, in practice: teas prepared in the afternoon, plants drawn in from the field and vessel, and materials that support a steady, ongoing relationship with the natural world.
LIVING TEA
Mindfully sourced whole-leaf teas suited to attentive preparation and seasonal drinking. Their work emphasizes the relationship to origin, processing, and community, including seasonal tea offerings that encourage ongoing engagement with tea as a daily practice.
ANIMA MUNDI HERBALS
Herbal blends and tonic foods rooted in traditional herbal systems and whole-plant sourcing. Their formulations bridge nourishment and ritual, supporting a slower and more intentional relationship to daily nourishment.
MOUNTAIN ROSE HERBS
Organic herbs, spices, salts, and pantry ingredients sourced with an emphasis on sustainability and transparency. A reliable foundation for single-origin herbs, extracts, essential oils, and cooking essentials, from teas and broths to seasonal preparations.
