We've been busy as bees making and gathering supplies to donate to Standing Rock and Zaniyan Wellness at Rosebud Camp. It is truly inspiring to witness the way people are coming together to offer support however they can. It makes such a difference in what we can accomplish!

One of the many ways people can help is by creating some of the herbal medicines and products needed, to ship or send out with the supporters heading to the camp in North Dakota. Some of the products that are in highest demand are our Essential Defender, Glycerin Herbal Tinctures and Herbal Smoking Blends. If you are interested in trying your hand at making any of these, we've set up a Recipe Page to provide a guide for making at home!

We recommend using only organic and ethically wildcrafted ingredients and trust Mountain Rose Herbs as a reliable source of quality ingredients.

Click any of the images below for instructions on how to make your own or you can purchase directly from us. All profits go to support the supply and provision of our products to the Indigenous Healing Camp!
