Bert's Herbs
Meet the Maker
Welcome to Bert's Herbs. My interest in herbal remedies has turned into a mission, and I love learning, growing, and creating herbal products. God has given us amazing resources and my mission is to share God's healing gifts with you.
Bert's Herbs is named after our cat, Herbert. My husband and I adopted Bert (Herbert) when he was nearly 10 years old after losing our 18 year old friend, Scorpio. Due to sad circumstances, Herbert lost 2 owners, and was separated from another cat he was bonded to. With patience and time, Herbert learned to trust us, and ultimately the hole in each of our hearts was filled. I hope to honor Herbert and earn your trust by providing natural, quality products.
How it’s Made
Throughout spring and summer I gather violet flowers and leaves and calendula flowers from my yard and garden. My sister also gathers her calendula flowers for me as we both know how useful they are for internal and external uses. The herbs are either air dried, dehydrated, or freeze dried until I have enough to start an oil infusion. My preferred method is a slow infusion in a warm sunny window, but as we get into fall and winter, I sometimes have to cave and use a quick slow cooker infusion. Once the oils are done "cooking", I use bees wax from a local honey farm to turn them into salves and lip balms. While I try to grow and wildcraft as many of my herbs as possible, when the harvest is not plentiful enough I purchase dried herbs from reputable sellers.
