Animas Botanicals crafts quality herbal medicine that brings vitality to individuals, humanity, and the earth.
Discover how Herbal Medicine can support our foundations of health.
Our bodies have an innate intelligent life force. This vital life force can get compromised in a myriad of ways in our modern lifestyle. Plants also contain a intelligent life force that can support us to come back into our innate vitality. Plants and people have been working together for most of human history; I believe it is time to reclaim this powerful ancient practice of healing.
Foundational Values
-
Ecological & Social Justice
We recognize the systemic inequalities that stem from the violence committed to native and other people of color across the country. We donate a portion of our proceeds to organizations working to serve ecological and social justices. We also offer a sliding scale, turning no one away.
-
Healthy People ~ Healthy Planet
We believe that the health of the planet and the health of the humans are inextricably linked. Thus in every business consideration we consider how our choices impact both human health and the health of the planet. This consciousness permeates from the health of our soil, to providing habitat on the farm, to the packaging we use.
-
Innate intelligence
Our bodies have an intelligent vital force. Likewise, Plants have an intelligent life force. Working together with plants is a powerful way to bring vitality back to our lives. Symptoms are a language our bodies use to alert us that we have an imbalance affecting our vitality. Plants are one of the many ways we can address our symptoms so that we can come back into our fullness.

Empowering Wellness
Healing happens from within. We seek to inspire people to create healthy practices - including herbal medicine - in their own lives through our on farm experiences.
We aim to educate our community about:
1.) Maintaining optimum health/wellbeing in the face of the challenges we face in this time.
2.)Ways we may be respectful stewards of this great earth.

Hand Crafted with Intention
Every stage of our production is done by hand, from seeding, to harvesting, to processing, to bottling. We manufacture all products on site in small batches using herbs we grow, ethically wildcraft, or from farmers we trust. A great deal of attention, intention, and love go into all of our products. Our hands keep us connected to the plant medicine and to the people we serve.
-
Chemical Free
We ensure that chemicals - herbicides, pesticides, fertilizers, toxic cleaners etc. - are NEVER used in the growing of making of our medicine. Furthermore we eliminate the potential for adulteration of herbs that is so prevalent in the mainstream market by growing our own herbs.
