Y’all remember that Pineapple Fire Cider I made for my WNC herb clinic? My local customers were a little upset it all went to WNC, I just strained and bottled a little batch of Pineapple Fire Cider for the store!!

🌿✨ Spotlight on Soursop: Nature’s Cancer-Fighting Powerhouse! ✨🌿

Lately, I’ve had so many of you asking about Soursop Tea — and for good reason! This powerful herb has earned its place in both traditional folk medicine and modern conversations around wellness, especially when it comes to supporting the body in the fight against chronic illness and even cancer.

Also known as Graviola or Guanábana, Soursop has been studied for its natural compounds, called annonaceous acetogenins, which have shown promising anticancer activity in lab studies. Many people use Soursop as part of a holistic approach to:

🍃 Support the immune system
💪 Combat inflammation
🧠 Soothe nerves and promote restful sleep
🌿 Assist the body’s natural detox pathways
🧬 Support cellular health

💚 I’ve taken Soursop daily for years — not just because it’s a powerful herb, but because it’s a reminder of the healing God placed in nature. It’s one of my personal must-haves, and I’ll continue taking it for life!

✨ What makes ours extra special? It’s directly sourced from Freeport, Bahamas, fresh and sun-dried with island care and tradition. It doesn’t get more vibrant than that!

🫖 Whether you’re just learning about this incredible plant or already a believer, stop by and let’s talk Soursop! I’m always happy to share how to brew it, how I take it, and what makes it one of our most-requested teas.

📍 Now available at Folk Medicine Farm Apothecary

🌱 Hand-packed with love, island-grown, and deeply respected

🌿✨ Back in Stock + Something New ✨🌿

Y’all… both Green Grease Hair Oil and Green Grease are finally back on the shelf! These two fly off faster than we can make ‘em, and we’re so glad to have them ready just in time for your late summer hair and scalp care! 💚

BUT WAIT, I have to tell you about something extra special I’ve been working on…

A friend brought me a bottle of a certain brand's fancy bergamot scent and asked, “Can you make something like this?” I told her I’d try and y’all, I think I nailed it. 😍

Meet LaGrange No: 33, a body oil that might just be the most luxurious thing I’ve ever created. I took a tester home and my husband loved it as a beard oil. Then our teenage daughter tried it and said, “This is the BEST thing you’ve ever made, Mom! Can I have a body wash, a shampoo, a spray, and soap??”

So... yes. It’s that good. And I have a feeling it’s about to become a local favorite. 💛✨

💥 We’ve got exciting things happening all week at the apothecary I’ll be in the shop formulating new blends for some clinical clients and working on major restocks!

🍋 AND we can’t let summer slip away without a little sweetness… Bee’s Shaken Lemonade Stand will be back on the porch this Friday & Saturday!! Come say hey and grab a cold one! 💛🐝

Swing by, stock up, and smell amazing. We can’t wait to see you!

Happy July!!!

Summer is just flying by this year!! I can't believe we're already to our July newsletter!! Here's a peek at what's happening around the shop this summer!!

💧 Stay Cool This Summer – Free Water Station!
It’s hot out there, friends! We’re doing our part to help you stay safe and hydrated. Through the end of summer, we’ve set up a Free Water Station in front of the shop – stocked daily with ice and bottled water. Whether you're walking downtown, visiting the farmers market, or just passing by, feel free to stop and grab a cold drink. No purchase needed – it’s there for YOU. 💙

Summer Restocks Are Here!

We’re fully restocked on your seasonal favorites:
✔️ Heal Your Hide After-Sun Spray & Balm
✔️ All Magnesium Butters – including fan favorites like Take a Breath & Magical Hydro
✔️ More salves, oils, teas, and summer skin savers!

🌿 New Formulas Coming Soon!
We’re busy brewing up some brand new chafing balms and stomach-soothing teas & tinctures to help you beat the heat, inside and out. Stay tuned!

🌿 On the Horizon: Our Third Herbs for the Hollers Clinic
We’re heading back to Yancey County, NC this Thanksgiving week for our third free herb clinic since Hurricane Helene. It’s hard to believe it’s almost been a year since the storm that changed so many lives—ours included.

We're now accepting donations to help us return fully stocked and ready to serve. Our Amazon Wish List has been updated with essential items needed to bring our apothecary on the road this fall.

🙏 As we prepare, our hearts and prayers are also with Central Texas, we are praying for all of those who were affected by the horrific flooding. Several of our friends from the United Cjuan Navy, Mountain Mules, and BeLoved Asheville have gone to assist, should you want to make a donation to help Central Texas, these are all charities that I personally know or work with.

Thank you for supporting community herbalism. You are the roots that keep us growing.

✨ Introducing: Mama’s Mender Herbal Balm ✨
Soothing skin, mending wounds, made with love.

Last week, my daughter was in a pretty tough golf cart accident that left her with painful road rash on her knees and legs. As any mama would, I went straight to the apothecary and blended the most powerful herbs I know into a healing balm just for her.

What happened next was nothing short of incredible. In just a few days, Mama’s Mender began working its magic—reducing redness, calming pain, and supporting deep skin healing. Her wounds are now well on their way to full recovery with beautiful new skin forming underneath.

Crafted with wildcrafted Devil’s Club, Comfrey, Plantain, Lavender, and nourishing oils like Broad Spectrum H**p, Jojoba, Almond, Castor, and Lanolin, this balm is formulated for scrapes, scabs, bruises, burns, and all of life’s little hurts.

From my daughter’s knees to your family’s first-aid shelf, this is Mama’s Mender.
Now available at Folk Medicine Farm Apothecary 💚

Well, it appears Summer has reached West Georgia!! I feel like we’re alternating between being in the air fryer or being in a seafood boil bag 🥵

I noticed we’ve had a lot of people walking down our little section of Hill Street, a lot of kiddos and teens this summer! To help beat the heat I put out a cooler full of ice cold bottled water!! Please feel free to take whatever you need!

Everyone is welcome, walkers, bikers, hikers, joggers, kids, teens, delivery drivers, city workers, law enforcement officers, all y’all!

Please share our post to get the word out around our community! Who knows, maybe some other businesses will join in and together we can take care of our neighbors ✌🏽🖤🌿
