Between the two of us, we have been working with plants and herbs for more than two decades. What was once a pure longing to help others balance their overall wellbeing and feel confident, lovely and natural in their beauty, bloomed into our business Fruits to the Roots. While our roots were cultivated in Los Angeles farmers market scene, we now fruitfully reside and create from the Catoctin Mountain region of Frederick County, Maryland.

Over the last 15 years we have studied with medicine men and women in the fields of plant medicine, shamanism, practical and metaphysical alchemy and energetic healing.

Working together, our process entwines the feminine and masculine energies along with intuitive and medicinal plant therapies. Utilizing many wisdom traditions from around the world and crossing paths with the ancient Hermetic tradition of Plant and Planetary Alchemy known as Spagyrics, we lovingly craft ritual skincare and bespoke offerings that contain an elevated consciousness. Our intention as healers and innovators is to inspire our customers to find peace and wisdom in the healing nature of plants, while encouraging a return of RITUAL body care & INTENTIONAL Wellbeing. Every moment offers insight and experience, it is up to each of us to listen, know and be present.
