Absolutely amazing!!!

North Carolina folk healer, Emma Dupree (1898-1996).
The following is from Harriet's Apothecary (follow them on Instagram for more inspirational stories on Black healers and wellness leaders):
“Born in 1897, the traditionally lucky seventh child (among 18 siblings), Dupree grew up on the Tar River and was known in her family as "that little medicine thing" because of her early understanding of herbs. "All that we see, everything that is growin' in the earth is healin' to the nation of any kind of disease," Miss Dupree would always say.
From the time she could walk, Dupree felt drawn to the land. She would roam the woods, plucking, sniffing, tasting weeds. She grew up that way, collecting the leaves, stems, roots and bark of sweet gum, white mint, mullein, sassafras in her coattail or a tin bucket. She'd tote them back to the farm, rinse them in well water and tie them in bunches to dry.
In the backyard, she'd raise a fire under a kettle and boil her herbs to a bubbly froth, then pour it up in brown-necked stone jugs: A white-mint potion for poor circulation; catnip tea for babies with colic; tansy tea - hot or cold - for low blood sugar; mullein tea for a stomach ache. Mixed with molasses or peppermint candy to knock out the bitterness.
Her kind of folk medicine dates back centuries. As an elderly woman she shared much of her knowledge with doctors and medical anthropologists, who came to her so they could understand more about the medicinal properties of native plants."

Hi guys! I'm sure you've noticed by now that for the past 2 months I have not posted anything. I became very ill with my kidneys and it took a bit to straighten everything out. Therefore soap was put on hold for a bit.
I do have bars of the Wicked Apple, I'll be glad to sell at a discounted price. I plan to make some Pumpkin Spice very soon with pure pumpkin in it for exfoliation. I'm still working on feeling better and getting back to full-time work.

Limited edition:
Wicked Harvest Apple is poured and first curing on the Blue Moon! More info later, but...
think mulled hot apple cider, soothing oatmeal, goat's milk, organic apple peel for exfoliation, and plant oils, especially chosen for autumn and winter itchy skin. Yup! It's loaded! Stay tuned, Dana

Finally after years of duct tape and bailing wire, got a new laptop. So today, I've been editing a website. It's taking forever. I want a dark apothecary or academia aesthetic but it's not working.
