I am a devoted student of herbal medicine especially, but I enjoy the cleansing, cosmetic, and culinary aspects of herbs and essential oils as well. Here are my flickr, you will find pictures of my everyday adventures into the world of herbs and essential oils, books I'm reading, and the like.

Unlike many herbalist, I am not an earth worshiper - I worship only the Creator of the earth, hence the conservative part of the name.

When I'm not mucking about with herbs, or running my online business, I love to bake and garden, read, and watch any classic movie and can lay my hands on. I love tea and coffee, smoothies and chocolate. I love spending time outside, especially in the mountains, or in the water be it creek, lake, pool or ocean. I also have been enjoying bike riding a lot more lately, and my goal is to build up enough stamina to be able to use it to go around town.
