| - I'm really pleased that the neighbourhood has a store like this. At first I thought they would just sell all natural balms, and skin care products, of which I could get anywhere. But what's also special is that one of the owners is an herbalist, and they have herbal dispensary where they can make custom tea blends, salves, or lotions.
The store itself is really nice. I love the high ceilings and wall to wall shelving. Off the shelf, they sell Matter (Substance) Company products, some soaps, candles, and there's a great men's section with beard products, if you're so inclined.
I spoke to the resident herbalist, about some of my body concerns, and she made me up a custom tea. It would probably last me about 1-2 months, and cost me about $15. She made sure it was okay for me even though I was breastfeeding. I will be coming back for a nice coconut oil infused hair rinse.
They will also be having some workshops in the near future about how to make your own products.
