About us
Our story
Our founder, Eugénie, has been following the path of the Earth and the plants for over a decade now. She studied, and has been practicing Traditional Chinese Medicine (Acupuncture & Pharmacology) since 2019. She also studied folk herbalism, traditional midwifery, and shamanism.
She has always felt a very deep connection to the Earth, who is her first and foremost teacher. She started preparing her own herbal medicines after spending time with her plants in her garden or the wild, and letting them show her the way.
Of Earth And People is the result of many years of this relationship to the Earth and its plants, and a platform to share the beauty of herbal medicine practiced in a respectful and loving way for all.
Our values
Of Earth And People was born out of a deep love and respect for the Earth.
We believe that if we could all learn to consume more consciously, we'd be able to (re)connect with the lands that nourrish us so abundantly, and our communities.
By offering complete transparency as to where each ingredient comes from, whose hands cared for it, harvested and processed it, we are hoping to help you connect more deeply with what you consume, and the Earth which gives it all to us.
Words we love & live by :
"Ask permission of the ones whose lives you seek. Abide by the answer. Never take the first. Never take the last. Harvest in a way that minimises harm. Take only what you need and leave some for others. Use everything that you take. Take only that which is given to you. Share it, as the Earth has shared with you. Be grateful. Reciprocate the gift. Sustain the ones who sustain you, and the Earth will last forever."
