Mountain Mage Herbals

12/10/2025

It’s the quiet season in herbalism.
There’s nothing for me to harvest.
There’s not much to be foraged on my property.
There are very few things in the “making cabinet” that need to be strained or finished off, though I do have a couple of oxymels for personal use in various stages.
Market season is just about over.
So what am I doing??

I’m enjoying my Christmas tree.
I’m making weird gifts and things for my friends.
I’m crocheting a blanket.
I’m sorting out my store shelf for home shopping.
I’m filling the wood rack and keeping the wood stove warm.
I’m reading books and settling back into herbal online classes.
Winter has a purpose and place- it’s for rest. Not just sitting around- that’s not always restful. Resting is about bringing yourself respite from work and refilling your heart so you can continue to give.
How do you refill?

If you have not registered for the 2026 Wild Medicine Conference yet, they have extended the early bird specials through December 15, 2025!

This means you can still save your spot with a $200 deposit and still get priority choice of lodging options!

This is such an incredible conference!!
I absolutely loved attending last year and I’m over the moon excited to attend and be a vendor this year!!

I met so many incredible people. More importantly, I found a community of herbalist and wild medicine enthusiasts that I adore. Seriously, some of the kindest folks I’ve ever met. You should join us!

There are many options for how much of the conference you want to attend. There are multiple options for lodging over the weekend. You won’t be sorry!

NEW PRODUCT!
AND let’s talk about Magnesium.

Magnesium is an essential mineral to our bodies’ functioning. There are several kinds of magnesium, and some are incorporated by taking them internally while some are absorbed through the skin.

The most effective absorption is by taking internally, but we can cover many bases with different types of magnesium. This is the main reason we use epsom salts for bath salts- they’re high in magnesium sulfate that you can absorb through your skin in a relaxing tub soak!

Magnesium citrate helps move the bowels.
Magnesium glycinate is gentle on the stomach and may be more bioavailable.
Magnesium malate and taurate target heart health.
Magnesium sulfate and chloride are best absorbed through the skin.

Magnesium works in many ways, including calming tension, supporting muscle recovery, and encouraging relaxation.

Magnesium deficiency can cause many issues that can be attributed to various causes. So this is an overall wellness issue that we don’t want to overlook.

My family generally takes magnesium glycinate most nights before bed, but this spray takes pill swallowing out of the equation. (Does everyone have that 1 child?)
😅

You’ll be able to find this in my online store today AND at Hazelrig Orchards in Cleveland starting tomorrow!

I get asked about Frank a LOT.
I personally do not sell Frankincense essential oil because I know the cost of it is reflective of the work it takes to procure it. This is a special plant with great benefits, but we shouldn't take that for granted. Please enjoy this special class about the conservation of Frankincense from United Plant Savers!
