SHE’S BACK!
Welcome to Juniperberry Apothekeri!
I’m Keri-Leigh, and I’ve built a small business rooted in generations of Chickasaw tradition — recipes lovingly passed down from my grandmother and her grandmother before her.
Living off the beaten path near Big Bear, CA, I’m blessed to gather wild juniper from trees that have stood strong for over 300 years, at 8,000+ feet where the air is pure and untouched.
What started as a personal journey — creating natural salves to ease my own chronic pain and survive a mosquito invasion — quickly became something bigger when friends tried my remedies and loved them!
Take a look at my page, see what Juniper can do for you, and support a Native-owned, heart-driven small business.
Thank you for being part of this journey.
Also… every order comes with a juniper smudge bundle, please do not ask to purchase.
I belive Smudging is an ancient, sacred practice used for cleansing, protection, and healing — passed down through countless generations in Native communities like mine. Sharing smudge bundles through sales isn’t appropriate, it’s about keeping these traditions alive, supporting Native makers, and helping people reconnect with natural ways of healing.
When you receive a smudge bundle from my company, it’s because i want to acknowledged that you’re supporting living traditions, respectful harvesting practices, and a deeper cultural understanding. It ensures that the knowledge, respect, and spirit behind these practices remain authentic and honored.
Smudge bundles made and by Native hands carry prayers, care, and centuries of tradition — not just product. That matters!
