About

Acorus calamus 

Calamus is an intense, warming, aromatic bitter that stimulates digestion, reduces gas and bloating, and treats gastric reflux. Calamus also has a strong affinity for the throat, trachea, and voice. In many Native American cultures, it is a traditional remedy for singers, particularly when the throat is hoarse or sore from straining and overusing the voice. Calamus also increases concentration and brightness of the mind; it is often included in blends that promote mental clarity, insight, and lucid dreaming. Brooklyn poet Walt Whitman wrote over 30 poems involving this remarkable plant. 

*Though calamus has been used safely by Native peoples for centuries, its essential oil contains the toxic compound aserone. Do your own research and/or consult with a doctor before using internally*

Great selection of herbs

"The herb shoppe is amazing! I had such a positive experience and the staff was so patient and helpful. As a newbie to herbalism and apothecary, it's so refreshing to be guided and helped out without any judgement. Vicky is super awesome and knows so much about herbalism and essential oils. Great selection of herbs and they have some delicious kombucha on tap."

This place is AMAZING

"This place is amazing. The staff there are always very helpful. Reasonable prices for a large selection of herbs, teas, etc. They have smudge sticks and other things too. I am a huge fan of their turmeric chips for my inflammation. It's better than taking ibuprofen, and I can just drop a few chips in my tea."
