Did you know not all herbs grow on land? 🌊🌿

Diving beneath the stormy waves of the dramatic North Atlantic Coast, you’ll find an extremely nutritious edible seaweed that goes by many names- Sea Oak, Sea Grapes, Black Tang, and Rock W**d. We know it as Bladderwrack, or Fucus vesiculosus, and we source from a trusted, small-scale wildcrafter who gathers from the clean coastal waters of Maine.

You don't need to go under the sea to find this hidden treasure, though. Shop H&A for your own bottle of this mineral-rich marine herb. Visit https://www.herbalist-alchemist.com/shop-products-bld-bladderwrack-extract

When we moved into our new manufacturing facility in December 2022, we finally had ample space for a small retail store and large multipurpose room for educational events. After much settling-in, planning, and scheduling, we were able to open up the front of our building to the public last September. Since then, we’ve had monthly educational lectures featuring wonderful local herbalists, vets, and medical professionals. (Come to David Winston’s “Adaptogens” talk 10/25!) And we’ve had the pleasure of meeting and helping everyone that’s stopped into our little store for our products 🌿
