And that’s a wrap, folks!!

Thank you to everyone who came bye to say hello and gave me the best hugs ever!

Thank you to the Golden family for continuing to provide such mindful and healthful offerings to the community! Thyme and Again is so much more special than I had ever imagined! I’m incredibly grateful for your friendship! I’m also so impressed with the full family work ethic! What a team!!!!!

Thank you to this sweet community for all of the support during these last three years! My time in Chester has been an experience I’ll not forget and the friendships and connections I have made here are so very special to me.

I had a picnic on the shop floor, while champagne induced giggles carried about.
I got hugs from littles that almost crushed my ribs 🤣
We all been drinking too much coffee, packing so many boxes and staying up way too late.

Team work! 🤍

Please make sure that you nurture the new business, Thyme and Again - the way that you’ve nurtured Songbird Wellness. I KNEW they were the perfect fit for creating a healthy and supportive environment for you all!

I’ll be packing my trailer tomorrow (Monday). I have way more work still to do that I had planned… so - come by if you would like. And otherwise, HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO YOU ALL!!!

Love to you all!! 🤍🤍🤍

Meet Charlie, of Thyme and Again!

✨Who Are We?✨
🌱Charlie Golden

Charlie will be the “fixer of things” at Thyme And Again, or the “shop dog” as his family likes to call him.

Similar to Michelle, he too won’t be seen at the shop much, as he is the Road Foreman/Road Commissioner in the Town of Andover. Born and raised in Springfield, Vermont, he and Michelle built their home in Andover in 2001, where they raised and later homeschooled their two daughters. Charlie will help run the business with the help of family and close friends.

In Charlie’s free time (what little there is) he likes to spend time with his family taking the “road less traveled”. Over-landing, kayaking, hiking and fishing are what he likes to do to free stress.

Charlie will be creating herbed salts for cooking in the near future where he will be looking forward to input from community and friends.

Vaylyn is such a gift to anyone who knows her. I’m so lucky to have gotten to work with her this past year.
Can’t wait to see what mindful blends she crafts! 🫖

✨Who Are We?✨
🌱Vaylyn Golden

Vaylyn has worked retail at Songbird Wellness since January of 2025 and will continue to do so for Thyme & Again. What started as a dream job quickly transformed into a place of solitude and warmth.

She has had an interest in wellness and holistic health for as long as she can remember, always eager to expand her knowledge of the healing properties of plants and how we can use it in a way that benefits us individually.

Born and raised in Vermont, Vaylyn prefers tranquil, woodsy environments and spends time in nature often. Her favorite hobbies include kayaking, off-roading, fitness and gardening. She also works part time as a dog walker and house-sitter.

Though she does not have an interest in becoming an herbal practitioner, she has studied herbology for the last three years and plans on preparing tea blends to sell at Thyme & Again. She enjoys dabbling with recipes and seeing what she can create.

Thyme & Again Apothecary and Wellness is launching their opening soon! Be sure to follow their page and keep up with what’s new 🤍

✨”Who Are We?”✨
🌱Michelle Golden

Michelle is the owner of Thyme & Again. With a love for holistic health, her vision is creating a comfortable, relaxing, calming space to offer natural wellness approaches, comfort tools, and workshops to support the community members in their wellness journey. She will be coordinating with others in the area to bring their expertise to workshops.

Michelle was born and raised in Springfield, Vermont. She married her high school sweetheart, Charlie, and they have lived in Andover for 25 years. Michelle is running the business with her family and close friends.

You likely won’t see Michelle at the shop much, as her full time career is a Mental Health Clinician specializing in women’s health, anxiety disorders, and trauma treatment. She is certified in Integrated Mental Health, Certified EMDR Therapist, and recently trained in CISM to provide clinical support to first responders, and critical events.

In her free time, Michelle enjoys spending time with her family, taking care of her chickens and dogs, outdoor activities, over-landing, and travel.

Stay tuned for more “Who Are We?” featuring individual bios from Vaylyn, Jayda, Charlie, Amanda McAllister, Justice Sutherland, Felista Sutherland, and Lindsay Hargis Post!
