Greetings Tribe! My name is Celia and I am the owner and Creatrix behind Love, Earth Apothecary! I am a Latina, mother, herbalist, bruja, and fresh cut flower enthusiast.
I am currently living in the wonderland that is the Pacific Northwest, but I am originally a native of New Mexico. The PNW has an abundance of wild plants ally’s, flowers, and trees! So many medicines can and do grow here, and the land is lush with life. Naturally, I am also familiar with the medicines of the enchanted Southwest, where I spent most of my life dwelling in the desert.
I started this journey over ten years ago, healing my own imbalances, skin issues, and mental health using plants and medicines from the Earth mother. After years of poor diet, over the counter pharmaceuticals and toxic skincare products, I was led to plant medicine. I started making my own skincare products, working with plant medicine internally, gardening, and making potions.
Making medicine with plants is empowering. Learning about herbal medicine in this modern society is a rebellious act. It is a form of activism! Taking ownership over one’s health is vitally important to changing the way we approach health care in our modern society. Becoming knowledgeable about plant medicine is just one way that we can reclaim some of our personal power, indigenous lineages, and simultaneously help our communities to heal themselves from the inside out. Wild food and medicine are literally everywhere around us if only we educate ourselves and take the time to look! The plants want our attention, and they’ve got mine. My wish is that humanity can remember, revive, and revere the wisdom and love of the Earth Mother.
As for the one-woman show behind-the-scenes, my products flow from my studies of wise woman herbalism, practical need for my own life, ancient remedies and rituals, and my career as a mental health therapist, social worker and Earth activist. Everything is made from the land with love by MY two hands! Quality is of the highest priority when it comes to each and every offering and will always be! This work is my passion, and you can taste and feel the difference in these carefully crafted products. Soil to soul.
Thank you for supporting small, woman owned business! I deeply appreciate every single order and all the support I've received along the way. My hopes are that you keep coming back and tell all your friends!
Love, Earth
