Wildcrafting is the act of finding and gathering wild-native plants for herbal remedies; Botanically Curious products incorporate wildcrafted herbs as part of the crafting process. Only 10% of plants are harvested in the wild, even for plants that are abundant, this leaves plants behind to reproduce and meet the needs of local wildlife. Foraging ensures ethically sourced and sustainable practices with herbal product's that are diverse in nutrients.
