Catskill Botanicals

Coltsfoot, a sign of Spring and a reminder to nourish the lungs and to support respiratory issues, dry coughs, and sore throats. Take the fresh flower and make a fresh plant tea. Inhale and drink the warmth. Interesting fact, Coltsfoot flowers bloom before the leaves arrive. After the flower heads falls off, the leaves grow to be enormous, and you would never know it started with a beautiful yellow flower. 🌼

Gotham City Outpost at the Southside mall in Oneonta is restocked with our tallow balm, Saint John’s wort face cream, and carrot seed eye cream. Fun fact about our Saint John’s wort face cream and carrot seed eye cream is that they both have natural sun protection and perfect for transitioning into spring. Pick up a jar at Gothamcityoutpost. You will love.

The Green Earth in Oneonta carries our entire line of face and body creams. The Green Earth was our first account back in 2015. Back then our name wasn’t Catskill Botanicals. Can you guess what it was? The Green Earth is fully replenished, along with our tallow face and body balm, and our lard hand repair. My husband has a USDA facility and I use all his tallow and lard for skin care products mixed with my herbs. Why not? Go check out Green Earth in Oneonta for our freshest latest products.

About to have fun with mica powders!!

Our lucious tallow balm is now at Tay Tea! I make our tallow balm with tallow from my husband’s USDA facility, calendula flowers, yarrow flowers, oat tops, castor oil, vitamin E, sweet almond oil, and very lightly scented essential oils of clary sage and lavender. Excellent for face, hands, lips, and cracked skin. Pick up amazing tea blends and unique gifts at Tay Tea in Delhi. Her Saffron Face Cream and Wild Rose Face Cream are the bomb, and also made by us. We had so much fun drinking tea, and shopping with friends. Stop by Tay Tea and feel the love!

Comfrey salve is back in stock! Our comfrey salve saved me when my ankle was swollen and I could barely walk while traveling. I pulled it out of my purse, skeptical it would even touch my pain, and a tiny bit worked instantly. I couldn’t believe I could walk and carry luggage and was so thankful for the quick fix to get me through my day. Seriously, our comfrey salve packs a punch for aches. pains, bruises, swelling, and discomfort. You want this in your purse or car or first aid kit. Sold at Good Cheap Food and catskillbotanicals.com.
