A Relationship With Herbs

At Wild Indigo, herbalism is a practice of getting to know the plants and paying attention to ourselves. It can be as ordinary as making a cup of tea, learning the story of an herb, and setting aside a little time to notice how you feel.

A single cup or dropper cannot tell the whole story. Some herbal preparations are used occasionally; others may be appropriate as part of a regular routine. What to expect, how often to use them, and for how long depend on the particular herb, preparation, and person. More is not always better, and taking something longer does not guarantee a benefit.

When an herb is appropriate for you, a simple, consistent ritual can make it easier to follow its directions and notice your response over time. Keep a few notes about what you use and how you feel. There is no need to increase the amount or keep taking something that does not agree with you.

Every body brings its own history, needs, and sensitivities. Choose herbs with care, follow the product directions, and ask a qualified healthcare professional or pharmacist about suitability and medication interactions. Herbs belong alongside rest, nourishment, connection, and appropriate care.

Herbs can cause side effects and interact with medicines. Check with a qualified healthcare professional before use if you are pregnant or nursing, take medications, or have a medical condition. Stop using a product if you experience an adverse reaction and seek appropriate care. Read our Herbal Disclaimer.

Homegrown Apothecary

Made With the Seasons

Wild Indigo is a regenerative farm, not a factory. Our apothecary begins in the soil, medicinal gardens, woods, orchard and hives of Wild Indigo Forest Farm, our family-run 111-acre nature preserve and certified forest in Clark State Forest in Southern Indiana, just north of Louisville.

We grow and gather according to the Honorable Harvest, taking only what is offered, using what we gather fully, and leaving enough for the forest to keep flourishing. When an ingredient cannot be produced here, we source it from trusted growers. Pawpaws arrive for a short, glorious window. Honey from Diagon Apiary is shared only when the gals have enough. Offerings shift with bloom time, harvest, weather and season.

The Story Growing Behind the Apothecary

Founder and steward Elise Dixie Jane is a third-generation herbalist who grows and processes many of the herbs used in Wild Indigo's offerings while tending the gardens, forest, wildlife, native plants and pollinators that make this work possible.

Our small-batch work is shaped by regenerative farming, composting, agroforestry, water stewardship, native planting, habitat restoration and a belief that caring for Mother Earth and caring for one another belong in the same sentence.

Every purchase helps us grow food and plant medicine, protect wildlife habitat, support pollinators and expand access to restorative experiences in nature. Through One Tree Planted, one tree is planted with every purchase.

Thank you for supporting the work growing here.

From Market Table to Apothecary

A Little Piece of the Wild Indigo Story

Before today’s shelves and labels, Wild Indigo spent years showing up at markets with handmade apothecary goods and whatever the season was offering. These old booth setups are part of that story.
