The Brothers Behind the Botanicals

The Brothers Behind the Botanicals

Our journey began with a shared passion for plant medicine and a commitment to purity. What started as a small project in our Portland kitchen has blossomed into a thriving botanical company dedicated to serving herbalists, makers, and wellness enthusiasts worldwide.


Every herb in our collection is hand-selected, ethically sourced, and tested for quality. We work directly with farms that share our values of sustainability, fair trade, and regenerative agriculture.
