Our Botanicals
Grown. Harvested. Infused. Used with purpose.
Every botanical used in our products is grown, harvested, and infused on our farm at Lady Cone Hop Yard.
We work with whole plants — flowers, herbs, hops, eucalyptus, roots, and spices — chosen not only for how they support the skin, but for how they support the body as a whole. Many of the botanicals we use help calm the nervous system, encourage rest, and support better sleep, which is why you’ll find them in both our skincare and our ritual-based products like bath salts and sleep sprays.
Our approach is simple: grow the plants, infuse them slowly, and let them do the work they’re meant to do. Essential oils are used carefully and in skin-safe amounts, only when they support function and experience — never to overpower the botanicals themselves.
Below are the botanicals we grow and why we use them.
