About Heilbron Herbs

Timeless botanicals for the modern body

Thoughtfully sourced from small US farms and carefully crafted in Southern Appalachia

Heilbron Herbs is a small brand making tinctures, teas, and botanical skincare in Western North Carolina. Our guiding star is true care for ourselves, each other, and the planet we live on. When it comes to the manufacture of our products, this means we do things the old way, working with fresh plants largely from farmers down the road - and entirely in the US - slowly extracting them in our own lab, pressing and blending by hand, season by season.

Based in Western North Carolina, near Asheville, our products are made of carefully tended, responsibly farmed and wild harvested medicinal herbs, grown and collected primarily by a small handful of growers in this area. We are one of the few brands using botanicals entirely grown in the US by small farms. Because we work directly with farmers, we have a close relationship with the plants we use and are able to watch them through their lifecycle. We have control over so much more than we would if we were working with imported plants, while supporting small farms and ensuring that the liveliness of each flower, leaf and root is upheld in everything we create.

Herbalist Saralyn Bellmer

I’ve been curious about plants and how they can help us since I was a child - maybe since before I can remember. My mom always tells the story of noticing her six-month-old baby sitting in the grass quietly rubbing plantain leaf (a weedy lawn-loving perennial) on eczema covered skin, later to find out that plantain is a primary skin-healing herb. I still find the magnetism of plants – by way of their colors, aroma, texture, flavor, habits and unique personalities - to be the most compelling guide in my adult life.
