From the Root Herbals

Why Herbs?

Herbal education and traditional plant preparations reconnect us with a way of healing that has supported humanity for thousands of years. Learning how plants grow, interact with the body, and are prepared with care allows us to work with nature rather than against it, honoring the body’s innate ability to restore balance. Herbalism is rooted in observation, respect, and relationship—understanding that each plant carries unique wisdom shaped by the environment it comes from. By choosing herbal medicine, we place trust in nature’s intelligence and in time-tested practices that emphasize prevention, nourishment, and gentle support instead of quick fixes. This approach empowers individuals to take an active role in their wellness while cultivating a deeper connection to the natural world that sustains us.

​

What about modern medicine?

Modern medicine plays an important role and can be life-saving when it’s truly needed. When there is a choice, however, herbs offer a gentler, more holistic way to support the body—working in harmony with nature to encourage balance, resilience, and long-term wellness rather than simply managing symptoms. Incorporating herbs into your daily routine is a simple, nourishing way to support overall health and maintain balance before issues arise. Over time, daily herbal practices help strengthen the body’s natural resilience without overwhelming the system.

 

All of our products are made in Montana using natural and organic ingredients that have either been grown in our gardens or have been foraged in the woods and meadows of the lower Clark Fork River valley. The only exception is our loose leaf tea blends. Some of these plants are homegrown but some have been ordered from reputable, organic sources like Azure Standard and Starwest Botanicals.  ​
