Wildroot is a working apothecary, not a wellness brand. Every tea, tincture, and salve is weighed to a formula by hand — organic and wildcrafted botanicals, chosen for a known action, named for the job they're meant to do. Nothing to decode. Just the right plant for the night you can't sleep, the week that won't let up, the gut that won't settle.
Kept in clinic dispensaries and written up by people who are hard to fool
No mystery boxes of pretty leaves. Every Wildroot tin is built around a job — wind down, settle the gut, clear the head — with each herb chosen for a known action, not a nice colour. The label tells you what's inside, what it's for, and why it earned its place in the jar.
Passionflower, valerian, and California poppy, with a little lemon balm to take the edge off the day. A slow, herbaceous cup that loosens the jaw and lets the mind put itself down. The one we reach for an hour before lights-out.
Ashwagandha root, tulsi, rose, and the milky-sweet kind of oatstraw. Built for the long-stress weeks that don't end, not the acute panic. Drink it through a hard stretch and the floor stops feeling like it's moving.
Fennel, peppermint, ginger, and a thread of chamomile — the carminative classic, blended to actually work. It unknots a heavy stomach, eases the bloat, and is gentle enough for a queasy traveller. Steep it strong after dinner.
Elderberry, echinacea root, astragalus, and thyme. The tin that lives by the kettle from October to March. Warming, faintly tart, and best taken at the first scratch of a sore throat — not three days into feeling wretched.
Gotu kola, peppermint, rosemary, and ginkgo, with no caffeine to crash off. A clean, green lift for the foggy hours — the cup for the morning after a bad night, or the afternoon the screen starts to blur.
Cramp bark, raspberry leaf, ginger, and a touch of cinnamon. A warming, mineral-rich blend the herbalist first wrote for her own patients — for the days the body asks for a hot-water bottle and a quiet room.
A pretty pouch and a poetic name aren't a formula. Wildroot is built the way a herbalist's dispensary is built — every batch weighed to a recipe, sourced from named growers, traceable from field to jar. The romance is real. So is the rigour underneath it.
Each blend is a recipe with ratios, drafted and re-drafted by a clinical herbalist for one specific action — the energetics, the dose, the way the herbs work on each other. We tweak it until it does the job, then we lock the formula. No batch is improvised.
We buy roots, barks, and flowers whole and cut them in small lots, so the volatile oils that do the work are still in the jar when it reaches you. Pre-powdered herb is cheap because it has already gone flat.
Certified-organic where it's farmed, ethically wildcrafted where it grows best, never irradiated or fumigated. We name the farm or the foraging region on the tin — because where a plant grew changes what it can do.
How much, how hot, how long, how often — printed per blend, in plain language. Herbs are food-safe, but they aren't all the same. The card tells you the difference between a daily cup and a stronger, short-course brew.
Every tin carries a batch number and the season the herb was gathered. Botanicals lose potency with age — ours are stamped so you always know the leaf is alive, and so we can trace any jar back to its source.
There's no factory and no shortcut — five steps between the grower's field and the kettle on your counter, the same way a dispensary has done it for a hundred years. This is the whole of it, start to finish.
We buy from named organic farms and a handful of trusted wildcrafters, choosing the harvest by region and season rather than whatever a broker has cheapest that month.
Whole roots, barks, and flowers arrive and are cut in small lots, by hand, the week they're needed — never pre-powdered, never stockpiled until the oils fade.
Each herb is weighed to the locked recipe on a gram scale, not scooped by eye. The ratio is the medicine; we don't round it off to save a minute.
The blend is folded together, given a batch number, and stamped with the harvest season — then a dosage and steeping card is written to match that exact lot.
Sealed into a recyclable tin to keep light and air out, signed off by the herbalist, and sent within days of blending so it reaches you alive, not shelf-worn.
Not everything belongs in a kettle. For the times a cup isn't enough — or isn't the point — Wildroot makes the tinctures, salves, and oils the old apothecaries kept on the lower shelf, in the same small batches, to the same standard.
Roots and barks steeped in organic cane spirit for six full weeks, then pressed — never heat-rushed. A few dropperfuls under the tongue when a tea is too slow or too much liquid. Sleep, stress, and bitters formulas to start.
Calendula, comfrey, and St. John's wort infused into olive oil over weeks, then set with beeswax into a tin that lives in a pocket. For chapped hands, sore muscles, and the small wear-and-tear of working days.
Loose blends of eucalyptus, lavender, and mineral salt for a steam bowl or a long soak — the most generous way to take a plant when you're too tired to drink one. Breathe it in; let the day come off in the water.
Tell us what you're working with — restless sleep, a tender stomach, a long stretch of stress — and the herbalist suggests a starting shelf. Not a diagnosis; a considered place to begin, the way a good apothecary always has.
What's behind the worktable
“I'd bought a drawer full of 'sleep' teas that did nothing. Quiet Hours is the first one I can feel — I'm not knocked out, I just stop arguing with the ceiling at 1am. The card told me to steep it stronger than I would have, and that was the trick.”
“I'm a naturopath and I'm hard to impress on sourcing. Wildroot is the only retail line I keep in the clinic dispensary — the herb is fresh, the formulas are sound, and they'll actually tell me which farm the astragalus came from. My patients notice the difference.”
“Belly Ease quietly fixed the after-dinner misery I'd just decided was my normal. My partner started stealing it, so now we order two. It tastes like something that's doing you good, not like a handful of grass.”
Pick how deep you want the shelf and we keep it stocked — blended to order, dated by batch, with a steeping and dosage card tucked beside every tin. Skip, swap, or cancel in two clicks. Plants shouldn't come with fine print.
One blend, chosen for what you're working on.
Our most-chosen plan — two blends, room to rotate.
For the household that runs on plants.
These are food-grade herbal blends, not licensed drugs, and they don't replace care from your doctor. That said — yes, the right herb in the right dose does real work, which is why every blend is formulated by a clinical herbalist around a known action and a proper dose. Brew it as the card says and you'll feel the difference between this and a supermarket 'wellness' tea.
We buy whole roots, barks, and flowers in small lots, cut and blend them to order, and stamp the batch number and harvest season on every tin. Botanicals fade with time and light — sealed in its tin and kept in the dark, a Wildroot blend holds its potency for many months. You're never drinking herb that has sat flat in a warehouse for years.
Some herbs aren't — and we won't pretend otherwise. Several blends, including Moon Cycle and the stronger tinctures, are not for use in pregnancy, and a few herbs interact with prescription medication. Each product lists its cautions plainly, and if you're pregnant, nursing, or on regular medication, please check with your doctor or a qualified herbalist before starting. When in doubt, write to us — a real herbalist answers.
A tea draws the gentle, water-soluble parts of a plant and lets you drink it slowly — lovely for a daily, food-like dose. A tincture is a concentrated alcohol extract that pulls compounds water can't, in a few drops under the tongue — faster, stronger, and easier when you don't want another mug of liquid. Many people keep both: the tea for the ritual, the tincture for the moment.
Anytime, in two clicks from your account — skip a delivery, swap your blend, change how often it ships, or cancel outright. No emails to send, no retention scripts, no fees. A standing order should make life easier, never trap you in one.
We ship across Canada and to the continental US. Shipping is free on Canadian orders over $50 CAD; US rates are calculated at checkout. Tinctures contain alcohol and ship within Canada and to most US states — a few have restrictions we'll flag before you pay. Every order travels in a sealed, recyclable tin.
Begin with a single tin or open the Apothecary Shelf. Say what you're working with — restless sleep, a tender stomach, a long stretch of stress — and the herbalist will point you to where to start.
