Dear Friends, 
Twenty-seven years in the herbal world has taught me to be more humble and listen to the plants and their needs, as well as my own.
I still have a lovely retail set-up in my 30-ft. yurt and would love to have you come buy your products here, or through our website or mail-order catalog. You may also find me at the Port Townsend Farmer's Market and a few craft fairs (see below).
I am an earth-based company and have the pleasure of stewarding seven acres of mostly cedar forest and wetlands. I have chosen to keep my life and dreams simple. The products I make reflect those choices. In between the cedars and wetlands I have created mixed herbal and vegetable gardens. Most of my fresh-made products come from these gardens and the surrounding land. I still have to  supplement my harvest with high-quality herbs organically grown by other farmers, or wild harvested from our local region and elsewhere.
Thank you for supporting local, sustainable, small herbal companies. I hope to hear from you, as I look forward to the time I spend with you, my customers.
I am also available for herbal consultations. I can work over the phone or in person. Each consultation takes about one hour and is paid for by your donation (suggested donations $20 to $100).
Feel free to phone for an appointment—360-385-4491.
With the warmest blessings,
Denise Joy

She is available for herbal consultations to the community and customers. For 22 years she has owned and operated Mountain Spirit Herbals, a company which specializes in herbal medicine. She makes, grows and wildcrafts much of the company's product. She regularly offers opportunities to local at-risk youth to learn herbal medicine. She has had over 50 apprentices and taught throughout Washington State and the Pacific Northwest.
Consultations available by request, fees on a sliding scale.
