We are a small homestead in Western Massachusetts. Supporting talented craftspeople, our communities, and the environment is a priority for us.

We offer high quality, small-batch, handmade, folk crafts - items of Hearth & Harvest, Roots & Ritual. Our offerings are handcrafted in small, individual batches - this includes growing our own herbs, making our own oils, sourcing our own ingredients, and crafting our own products whenever possible. We also look to our local and global communities for talented craftspeople, ingredients, and items.

Our lore comes from our diverse backgrounds, including New England, Sicilian, Italy, and Europe. As “New World Practitioners” of the “Old Ways”, we bring together the integrity and quality of the past with modern-day practices and venues.

Our products are available on our website and during nice weather you might find us at various agricultural, cultural, and craft fairs around New England.

We provide descriptions solely for information and education. We make no claims of medical, or cosmetic benefits. None of our products are intended to replace the advice or services of a qualified health professional.
