Spring Favorites

From bright, mineral-rich greens to skin-loving botanicals, our spring essentials are crafted to refresh, renew, and shake off the heavy chill of the colder months.

Since 2021, Folk & Fire Apothecary has been handcrafting wild, small-batch herbal remedies that root you back into the land. Our work isn’t about trendy wellness—it’s about deep, real connection. We gather plants from forest, field, and mountain, turning them into salves, elixirs, and tonics that hum with the rhythm of the seasons. These aren’t just remedies; they’re a way back home—to your body, to the wild, to the pulse of something ancient.

Every bottle, jar, and drop is a love letter from the earth—crafted with care, infused with intention, and designed to nourish every bit of you.

Our work is also about remembering. It’s about sinking back into the rhythm of the earth, honoring the cycles that have guided humans for generations.

At Folk & Fire Apothecary, we support that remembering through herbal education. Whether it's gathering at our local workshops or stepping into our yearly apprenticeships, we’re here to walk beside you on your journey back to the Land.

So whether you're massaging a salve into weathered hands as the sun sets, sipping a tincture that carries the memory of rain-soaked leaves, or steeping a tea infused with plants you harvested yourself, every moment becomes a thread weaving you back into the land. This is a return, a rekindling, a homecoming. It’s time to nourish, ground, and root yourself deep.

the he{art} of our herbalism

Hey there, I’m Sia

Every tincture, salve, and herbalism offering we create is a love letter to the land and its wisdom, crafted here in the lush forests of Bainbridge Island. This isn’t just herbal medicine—it’s an invitation to rediscover the wild parts of yourself and reconnect with the rhythms of the Earth.

A little about me: I’m an admirer of deserts, prairies, ocean waves, and a perfectly brewed lavender latte. Born in Oklahoma and raised in rural Montana and southwest Colorado, I carry the essence of those landscapes within me. My work honors earth-based traditions, and the wisdom of my ancestors—rooted in deep kinship with the Earth—guides my medicine-making and daily life.

Modern life races ahead, but the Earth teaches us to slow down. The cycles of nature—budding blooms, waxing moons, and shifting seasons—offer us grounding and grace. With every remedy, I hope to help you align with these rhythms and rediscover the quiet, sacred magic of intentional living.

Here at Folk & Fire, we honor the plants, the land, and the sacred connection between us all. Welcome to the journey. 🌿✨
