Every year, in the spring, my husband Jeff, me, and our dogs, load up our camper and head downhill in search of the plants I’ll be infusing into your soaps, lotions, and skincare.
Our spring adventures are a very special time for Jeff and I to unplug, rest, and reconnect to the wild world. We turn off our phones, take a deep breath, and settle into peaceful, contemplative quietude along rushing creeks, blooming forests, and fresh green meadows just starting to come to life with the promise of spring.
Our adventures usually don’t take us very far! Most years we go just downhill a bit but still in the mountains of Colorado. That is where the plants I use are starting to bloom. Here in Crested Butte, we have to wait a wee bit longer (June!) for the plants to be ready to start harvesting. Occasionally, we go further for longer.
Thanks so much for your loyal support, understanding, and patience during our time away.
