Vulgaris Herbs was created with the intention of serving our local community with herbal supplies, accessible, hand crafted, small batch herbal remedies, workshops and consultations. We believe that herbal medicine is “People’s Medicine”: accessible, available, affordable to everyone. We invite you delight in the ordinary, notice the wonders of your back yard and experience the great web that connects us all. Stop by, enjoy our delicious freshly made brews, peruse our extensive library and enjoy the wonderful medicine our plant allies have to offer!Our FounderHi! I’m Alexandra, about 8 years ago I started a little herbal education business called Mindful Wilderness. Through the years I have always dreamed of creating a space to host the remedies of the incredible women makers I have met along the way. These are trusted collaborators, partners and friends and I hope you find as much joy, nourishment and wisdom in their remedies as I have! I began my herbalism journey 10 years ago, inspired by my grandmother and the wise women in my Romanian heritage. For the last 8 years I have been teaching workshops on herbal medicine, nature connection and wilderness skills. I offer workshops at my home, and now of course at Vulgaris Herbs, local organizations and farms in the lower Hudson Valley with the intention to create and support our connection to local communities and plants.
