"I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived."
~Henry David Thoreau
Taking a holistic approach to healing and health has been a lifelong journey. I learned a lot growing up on a farm in western Montana. More than anything else, I established a way of life I love and nurture daily here on my mountaintop sanctuary in Potomac, Montana. Herbalism and plant medicine are second nature, coming from a farm family. Plants, animals, and nature were my grounding and strength and still are today! I learned so much about agriculture, gardening, canning, cooking, and making butter and cheese. Our farm animals were beloved to all of us, and we enjoyed the freedom of riding horses and living the kind of life many could only dream of in our very rural Montana farm community.
When I returned from living and working as a translator in Europe, I wanted to return to this simpler life and reside in nature, where I could recover my grounding and strengthen my spirit in the mountain forests and meadows. I started with my Signature Herbal Healing Salves & Balms, making soaps and lotions, and eventually facial skincare and aromatherapy body care. Later, I began dabbling with essential oil blends, for which I have developed a real passion. I also offer proprietary essential oil blends. My most recent focus is on healing with Flower and Vibrational Essences for healing people's spirits. I want to share these products with others and establish a way of life synergistic with my career.
I make these products in small batches like I have for many years. I am responsible for each step of the process, from the herbal infusions to the bottling, labeling, marketing, and exhaustive work of the gardens and the freedom of walking in nature and foraging for herbs, barks, and wildflowers that make our products the unique and beautiful products that will grace your face and body. I guarantee that my products are made with the finest and freshest ingredients and, of course, Love!
Our formulas are unique! The oils alone are known for their amazing healing, conditioning, and anti-aging properties to revitalize the skin. Add to that the botanical extracts, infusions, and, most importantly, the exquisite and rare healing essential oils, and you have excellent natural skincare. Our products feel different ~ alive with a distinct energetic vibration!
Raven Hill Botanicals is a cottage industry borne out of the need to lead an existential life in nature surrounded by beauty and nature's bounty. It was also established out of the need to know what was going into my body and skincare products. It has been ten years, and I am still in business because of our loyal customers. Thank you for your purchases, which ensure our existence.
Raven Hill Botanicals is located thirty miles east of Missoula, Montana, up the Blackfoot River Canyon, which opens up to the beautiful and plentiful Potomac Valley in what can only be described as one of Montana's hidden treasures!

Raven Hill Botanicals Presents - Fun in the Forest! Forest Bathing, Drumming, Dancing, Nature Contemplation, Wildcrafting, Flower Essence Making, Forest Crown and Wreathe Making, Berry Picking and Foraging.
We're trying something new this summer! The Tipi is back in the meadow after a 15-year hiatus, and we will host gatherings again. We are looking for your talents to help bring a team of inspiration to adults and kids alike being in nature. We're looking for artists, dancers, movement as a healing art, Nature lovers, bird watchers, and people interested in learning simple wildcrafting and foraging later in the summer. We will be offering some camp spaces in the meadow on Hip Camp. We're inviting you to COME HOME TO THE FOREST and experience the healing power of nature!
(Addendum: This program is now finished because we are experiencing severely dry forests with a high risk of forest fires.)
