The Garden Project
Herbal Root Organics was founded with the mission of offering a wide range of organic, non-toxic everyday products designed to promote healing and well-being. Our diverse product line includes herbal infused castile soaps, whipped shea butter, sunscreen, bug sprays, elderberry syrup, sea moss, tea blends, tinctures, beeswax candles, and more. Everything we make is made with simple, natural, and non-toxic ingredients with a purpose. By harnessing the natural benefits of plants, we are able to create products tailored to an individual’s specific needs, leveraging the vitamins, minerals, and healing properties found in nature to help support healing and recovery. The incredible array of benefits that Mother Nature provides us with is truly remarkable and abundant. Our storefront serves as an enchanting forest-themed apothecary cafe, offering a selection of over 70 different herbs, flowers, and medicinal mushrooms available for purchase by the ounce. We also specialize in handcrafting a variety of medicinal beverages designed to support various aspects of health and wellness. Our carefully curated selections include beverages tailored to enhance focus, alleviate anxiety, improve digestion, and boost immune system function. Additionally, our space features a tranquil studio where we host a variety of classes and workshops, including yoga, plant medicine sessions, cacao ceremonies, children's classes, candle making workshops, herbal mixology classes, and more. Customers can conveniently purchase our products either at our physical store in Boonton or through our online store, with shipping available nationwide across the United States. But this is only a part of our vision! Part two of this dream would be the establishment of an Organic Farm. We are currently in the initial phases of realizing our dream. With a few acres at our disposal, we have dedicated the past two to three years to laying the groundwork for a diverse range of herbs and produce. Our vision includes expanding our capabilities by acquiring 2 or 3 hoop houses, implementing an irrigation system that incorporates rainwater harvesting, climate control mechanisms, and obtaining essential tools for processing what the garden yields. Your generous contributions will play a crucial role in helping us create a sustainable and eco-friendly farming operation that promotes environmental conservation and provides healthy, organic herbs and produce to the community. We are thrilled and enthusiastic about the opportunity to cultivate all of our own herbs to be used in the products created here at Herbal Root Organics in addition to providing truly organic produce options at affordable prices. Our primary focus will be on implementing organic and sustainable gardening practices to nurture our herbs and produce, steering clear of industrial chemical fertilizers and pesticides. In addition to this, our vision includes providing classes and workshops, both onsite and online, for children and adults, or anyone eager to gain knowledge and skills in organic cultivation and regenerative farming. Are you familiar with the expression, “it takes a village”? Lauryn often expresses the sentiment that we were removed from the “village'' many years ago, leading us on a quest to rediscover it. Our journey involves seeking out our tribe, forging connections with others and with nature, and supporting one another. We strive to reclaim our freedom, honor our heritage, prioritize our well-being, and build back our village!!! Your generous donations are greatly appreciated as we work towards these goals. Thank you for your support and cheers to our collective efforts!
