We are in This Together
Small Batch, Organic, Place Based Herbalism
Welcome to 7 Feathers Apothecary
We exist to support our community in having access to local, organic, herbal medicines cultivated and prepared on site at the Whole Life Learning Center. Whole Life founder and herbalist Caroline Riley Carberry, created the apothecary in 2018 after 6 years of transforming a pasture into a forest garden full of food and medicinal plants.
As our gardens have matured and created an abundant surplus Caroline realized that creating access to holistic health options while cultivating relationships to the plants growing on site is the next step in creating a dynamic holistic learning center. We practice regenerative farming techniques utilizing native and non native medicinal plants growing in our gardens while creating habitat for wildlife. Our gardens are a living classroom for about a 100 students ages 3-14 during the week and hosts students for regenerative design and herbalism courses on the weekends.
While our herbal products utilize what the forest garden offers us seasonally, Caroline has stocked the apothecary with over 100 organic medicinal plant extracts from high quality sources to work with during one on one consultations. Caroline prepares these extracts using organic distilled spirits and organic food grade vegetable glycerin. She prepares her extracts the Alchemical way of Spagyrics. Each plant is harvested at an optimal time and prepared in a way that creates the most potent medicinal that works with the Body, Mind, Heart and Spirit. She also dries as much plant material as possible for custom blended teas for clients.
Because we are creating medicinals with what the land offers us seasonally using the highest quality ingredients and smallest carbon footprint possible our stock ebbs and flows with the seasons. Enjoy our unique, small batch medicinal products and please come visit the apothecary in person for a full picture of what we carry day to day.
If you are looking for support with a specific health concern please schedule a session with Caroline via text or email: Caroline.riley.carberry@gmail.com or text 512-217-0661 A session includes about 1 hour of consultation time and a 2oz custom blend tincture for $75. A tea blend can be added for $10

VOLUNTEER DAYS ON PAUSE FOR NOW
Thank you all for your interest in getting involved in this Community Herbalism endeavor. I have visions of us woven into the gardens and think that these opportunities to work and learn alongside each other is the physical manifestation of this dream.
This space has had 100s of people's support along the way. Each season the gardens grow more abundant and as more people come the space tells a story of a beautiful resilient community, connected through children, plant medicine and a desire to learn regenerative ways of cultivation. This is the people's medicine.
