herbalist-crafted body care

I formulate my products with care and intention, slowly making each batch by hand. I grow and wildcraft many of the herbs myself. What I do buy is often sourced locally and always grown without chemicals.

In my products I use organic, cold-pressed oil from midwest sunflowers, and the honey and beeswax are from a local family-owned farm.

about Anikó

I'm a folk herbalist and teacher whose work is rooted in earth-based Hungarian folk practices. I'm inspired by the stories of the artists and old village herbalists in my family, including my great aunt Izus who kept the family alive during and after wartime by knowing the edible and medicinal plants in her bioregion.

Before working with plants I was in education but for the last decade+ I've been teaching workshops about herbal folkways, medicine making, and personal ritual. I also make herbal products as a way to excite others' curiosity about herbalism and the natural world. Mentoring students to help them find balance and vitality is a natural extension of this work.

Lately I've been distilling hydrosols, studying herbal energetics, researching Hungarian folk medicine, dyeing with botanicals, and learning how plants can help integrate grief and trauma.
