Flora Celtica Products

A range of seasonal medicinal salves, infused oils and wild brews all handmade from foraged plants

Wildcrafted and handmade in Argyll, Scotland 

Wildcrafted Plants

Different plants have different medicinal values and have been used for thousands of years to aid and heal our mind and body. Following the seasonal shifts in nature, I forage what is available and base my salves on what is growing in the area at the time. During spring and summer I also dry plants to create a herbal larder of plants to use during the autumn and winter months.

Salves 

Each foraged plant is infused in carrier oils to extract the medicinal plant constituents that will help soothe your skin and aid in healing. I use sweet almond oil, olive oil and evening primrose as the carrier oils and combine with raw organic bees wax and organic shea butter. Essential oils are added according to their medicinal qualities and for fragrance. But for those folks with sensitivity to essential oils, products can be made without upon request. 

Landscape

I sustainably forage the plants on a seasonal basis, taking only what I need, from the area surrounding Loch Fyne in Arygll and Bute, on the west coast of Scotland. I work locally on a farmstead where we naturally grow flowers and herbs, which I also incorporate into my salves. No pesticides or chemicals are used.
