This is a project of love.
The seasonal herbal box was created out of my passion for sharing the power of handmade herbal remedies with friends and loved ones. And a desire to share those gifts with all of you.
May we all awaken to our relationship
with the healing power of plants again.
And find solace, comfort and joy in the simplest acts : anointing our bodies with delightful handmade herbal oils, putting
salve on our sore shoulders or achy joints and muscles,
savoring the tranquility found in
a cup of tea, boosting your immunity, and learning more about how herbs can become a powerful part of your home apothecary or “medicine kit.”
May we all feel renewed
and become enlivened again
in the magic of it all.
The Spring Magic
Seasonal Herbal Box
is HERE!
NOTE : Once these handmade herbal boxes are sold out the next ones will be available in the summer.
. . .
I’ve selected my favorite herbal allies and home remedies to make right now to awaken your senses and support your body in this season’s herbal box.
Each box for this season contains a loving mix with the most delightful handmade items (full descriptions listed below).
What’s Inside the Spring Seasonal Herbal Box :
I’m so excited to offer some of my exciting new blends, updated formulas and delights for the spring magic herbal boxes!
1. Rose is one of the most spectacular and versatile herbal allies, and what a joy it was to create this Rose Petal Salve - a pure sensory delight, just like the season of Spring!
This smooth salve is great anywhere, and especially where you feel dry and need some nourishment.
2. I’ve been working for months (and really years if I am being honest) on tweaking and fine-tuning a Facial Cream with Rose as the base. Some of you have enjoyed my past facial creams with Pine or Calendula, and I am absolutely THRILLED to announce I’ve created a Rose Hip Seed Cream that is simply divine, lush and wonderful for your skin (as a night cream).
You can even refrigerate this one, and make it into a cold cream. So soothing - I cannot wait to hear what you all think! It will not clog pores as it is made from high grade rosehip seed oil, vitamin e oil and my handmade full moon rose water.
3. I’ve been in LOVE with Yarrow for many moons now, and I’m delighted to share a lush whole plant body oil made with this healing and regenerative ally that will leave you feeling nourished and protected. Great as an everyday oil, or for when you want to give you skin some extra love (bug bites, closed wounds, etc.)
4. Spring is a season of transition, and with that means our immune systems could use an extra boost! I’ve made an Elderberry and Echinacea tincture that would be a great one to take when you are feeling under the weather, or when you want a boost.
BONUS : Elderberry has also been shown to help with allergies!
5. I’ve been enjoying working with bitters for quite some time to support digestion and to keep blood sugar balance. This is the best tasting bitters formula I think I’ve ever had! This delicious Elecampane Ginger Orange Bitters also has an expectorant quality - meaning it will help if you are also struggling with a lingering cold, cough or sore throat.
6. Facial steaming is a practice that I cannot recommend enough - to help clear sinuses, and also to bring a radiant glow to your skin. Plus it is SO relaxing. I’ve harvested Sage, Yarrow and Rosemary from my garden for this blend. You’ll love this once you try it!
7. Drinking herbal tea is a daily ritual for me, and I’ve been loving making teas with the magic of trees at the transition from winter to spring. This blend that combines local Redwood tips with Rosehips and Orange Peel.
A great tea to drink as we emerge from our cocoons, and/or when you need a boost and moisture.
+++ I’m also including an option to add a past popular herbal tea blend for restful sleep and relaxing evenings. Blue Dream is back!
8. And I’m continuing to include the Full Moon Infused Rose Face or Body Mist in every Seasonal Herbal Box.
This mist is rejuvenating, toning + cooling. Everyone loves this spray and I’m excited to continue offering it.
+++ For the first few orders you’ll also get
A BONUS ITEM!

It is my intention help you connect with these beautiful herbs, plants and flowers as potent allies for our wellness and thriving.
All of these items are handmade by me, grown in my garden, ethically wildcrafted or sourced organically and locally as much as possible and joyfully created.
Batches are very small, and infused with a lot of care and often take many moon cycles to create.
I craft each seasonal herbal box at each turn of the wheel of the year to support you throughout the whole year and your life. I lovingly share the plants, resins and formulas that are coming through most strongly at the time they are made.
It is my dream to help us all deepen in our connection with these wonderful plant and herbal allies whether you are new to it, falling in love with plants all over again, or deeply steeped in the green realm. I encourage you to “commune with” each creation in the box - and feel into the essence of the plant and remedy itself.
Rather than “using” these herbal products I encourage you to connect with what they can teach you at this moment in time. There is always more to learn from our green allies. I can’t wait to hear about your experience!
“I received my herbal box and I’m loving every single product. They are so beautifully crafted and I can just feel the Love that you have put into your work.
The teas are refreshing (wish I had more), the body bar is so hydrating, the facial mist and calendula cream are calming and luxurious, and the lavender rose oil makes my skin glow and I feel wrapped with Love. Oh and my tummy loves the mugwort bitters.”
“I absolutely love my seasonal herbal box and use something from it daily! Each product is made with such care and kindness and provides a treat for the senses. Thoughtful touches from the little description cards for each item down to the packaging make this box of healing truly special. I cannot wait for next season! ”
“It is so luxurious to have all of these remedies. ”
“You can feel the reverence in Crystal’s products. I love spritzing my face with the rose mist upon waking before applying my face oil; it is also beneficial if you live in a drier climate to spritz throughout the day. And the healing salve I use on chapped lips and has worked wonders on my partner’s super cracking and rough hands. If your looking for quality, beauty, and supportive products made by caring hands, look no further! ”

The Spring Magic Seasonal Herbal Box
Each lovingly crafted box comes with a combination of 5 - 9 items.
Supply is VERY limited as everything is grown or ethically sourced, handcrafted by me and takes time and attention to infuse. This is SLOW herbalism at the pace of the earth.

“I just got your amazing, delightful, delicious herbal box and I am in love!
These products are so beautiful. I immediately slathered myself with all of the skin ones and I can’t wait to try the tincture and the tea."

”The magic that Crystal creates along with the magic that the plants offer is incredible. Her buttery soft salves have comforted me during my moon cycle and
eased the discomfort of the cramps and headaches that come along for the ride.
Her rose moon water smells dreamy and if you close your eyes you feel as though you're in a field of roses.
Her dedication to herbalism, working with the cycles of the moon, and the respect she holds for the plants when working with them is evident in every offering she creates.
Her work is clearly a labor of love. You can literally smell and feel the love when you use her products.
I consider myself so lucky to be able to nurture myself every day with all the magic she creates. Thank you Crystal for everything you do!! My body thanks you!”
- Sharon
”Crystal's full moon rose water toner is a dream! I've been using it regularly and find it to be a refreshing way to wake up my skin in the morning
and love the apple cider and rose scent. What also feels extra special to me is to know it is all locally harvested and crafted with so much love and intention
something that you can't put a price tag on!"
-AS
”I just tried the calendula body butter and rose water spray this week and *love it*!! These things bring a spritz of joy into my day."
-Michelle
“I really like how the rose clay mask feels on my face, and how my face feels afterwards.
The healing hands salve is the perfect consistency and I have no idea how you got it that way - is also smells great.”
- Alison
The Seasonal Herbal Box was created by Crystal Marie Higgins - a lineaged Initiated High Priestess in Celtic traditions, an Initiated Witch, as well as a Yoga Teacher, an Herbalist and an Ethical Marketer. She has been in devotion to earth wisdom, the cycles of the moon and the seasons since 2012. She loves to create, to cook and share that magic with others!
Crystal’s intention is to awaken our consciousness toward the radical practice of attuning your life and the flows of your creativity to the seasons of the year, the cycles of the moon and the wisdom found in the everyday. She is a lover of the plant realm, being outdoors and engaging in sacred rituals.
The Seasonal Herbal Box started off as an idea, and a project of love to share the healing power of connecting with the green realm with others. Every box is infused with sacred intention, and ritual suggestions to help you explore, have fun and feel supported.
