About Us
Healing is inherently rooted in Nature.
At St. Francis Herb Farm, we work hand in glove with nature to understand, nurture, and extract the healing compounds to be found in the plant world.
We are herbalists, but not your average herbalists. We are multigenerational herbal artisans who have spent 30+ years researching and cultivating our knowledge and trade. Herbs are our abiding and passionate obsession. Every day, we never cease to be amazed by the wisdom they unlock in the body, helping it to heal and be nourished naturally. It is our belief that each of nature’s healing plants is special and that, because of this, there is a unique way of respecting a herb’s singular therapeutic qualities and drawing the best out of it. That is why we created our Holistic Herb ApproachTM, which customizes our method to each plant out of regard for its distinctive biological signature.
We also work closely with proudly Canadian organic farmers who believe in a wholesome back-to-basics way of living and are as committed to it as we are. This is a key component of our approach, as we would never give you something we would not give to our nearest and dearest.
At the end of the day, we are indeed family people who love our community and believe in an enriching way of life that supports both.
For over 30 years, our family has been driven by the passion to cultivate the finest quality herbs available and then to extract their medicinal properties through our holistic approach, so that you in turn can feel the healing difference that well-made plant medicine makes.
