Dear Friends,
After 23 years in the herbal world I have learned a lot and also feel like there is so much more to learn. Here at Mountain  Spirit, we are becoming increasingly aware of the individual relationship with you, our customers, making our exchanges more personal interactions than business transactions.
We now have a lovely retail set-up in our 30 ft. home yurt and would love to have you come buy your products here, or through our website, catalog, craft fairs and local farmer's market.
We are an earth- based company and have the pleasure of stewarding seven acres of mostly cedar forest and wetlands. We have chosen to keep our lives and dreams simple. The products we make reflect these choices. In between the cedars and wetlands we have created mixed herbal and vegetable gardens. Most of our freshmade products come from these gardens and the surrounding land. We still have to supplement our herbal harvest with high-quality herbs grown or wildcrafted by other farmers, both in our local region and elsewhere.
I hope to hear from you as this will be my first year that all my sons have moved on to homes of their own and I look forward to the extra time to spend with you, my customers.
I am also available for herbal consultations.
Feel free to phone for an appointment - 360-385-4491.
With the warmest blessings,
Denise Joy

She makes, grows and wildcrafts much of the company's product. She regularly offers opportunities to local at-risk youth to learn herbal medicine.
