And she rises!
Apologies for the long silence 💚 My Herb Room is up! I'm available to do refills of current formulas, local fresh harvest bulk herb stock, herb tea/infusion blends and phone consultations for updating or creating new custom formulas.

Right now everything is by appointment only, flexible days and times, for curbside pickup in West Eugene.

Call or text me with your wishes and I'll see what I can make come true! 💚 Blessings Heather Nic an Fhleisdeir Clinical Herbalist 541 686 6136

Well, here's a surprise plot twist. After 31 years in business I'll be closing Mrs. Thompson's Herbs, Gifts & Folklore. The last day I'll be open is this Saturday June 28th. Do come in, get refills & stock up. It'll likely be a couple of months before I know for sure how I will be going forward. Certainly I'll be increasing my online presence, as Mrs. Thompson’s and as Village Herbalist Heather Níc An Fhleisdeir on this platform and many others. So like, comment and share to keep my pages on your radar. Long time customers and clients will be able to get pre-arranged orders by appointment. I'll return to teaching full herbalism coursework in January. And the eight books I have lined up to complete will take center stage. You'll still be able to phone me 541 686 6136, but everything we do will need to be by appointment. I'm feeling both grief and grateful 💚 still standing after 31 years 💚 and the future is open wide. 💜 blessings Heather

It turned out delectable enough for the wealthy clients that I once was chef for. Get this into your own kitchen! Olives optional 😃 💚
