How I do things

I work the way it's always been done: without rushing, choosing each leaf for what it gives and for the little story it carries.

Just the plant

No additives, nothing added. Just the plant, the way it's always been prepared.

Made in France

Everything is prepared here, by hand, following the seasons rather than the other way round.

Handed-down habits

Recipes my mother had from hers. Nothing new: just what's worked forever.

Grandma's Herbarium:
everything I know about my plants

I'm gathering here, little by little, the plants I know: the ones from home and the ones from elsewhere. Where they come from, what they do for you, how I prepare them. It's all written plainly, so everyone can follow along.

Nothing made up

Just what we've long known.

No empty promises

I tell you what does you good, without overdoing it.

My herbal oils :
the strength of plants in a bottle

Come sit with me at the kitchen table, and I will show you how to capture the strength of plants in a simple bottle of oil. A well-dried plant, a little patience, and you will have a treasure for your evening massages.

Slip a few well-dried flowers into your bottle of oil and let the sun do its work. This is my time-tested recipe to help soothe the skin.

Your questions

The ones I’m asked most often. The rest are waiting on their own page.

How are new plants chosen?

We follow the seasons, quite simply: fresh plants in spring, roots in winter. And we read our readers' suggestions every month.

Can I contribute?

Yes, gladly. Come through the contact form. Your idea goes through the same reading as everything else: nobody here gets published without a second pair of eyes, me included.

What does the newsletter look like?

One letter a month, on the first Sunday. A seasonal feature, three plants to discover, one recipe. No spam, and you unsubscribe in one click.

What are the delivery times?

Count three to five working days with Colissimo, four to six with Mondial Relay. We still only deliver to mainland France, and it is free from €30 of purchase.

The seasonal Letter

Come sit at my table

One letter each season: the plant of the moment, a recipe, a little tip. Sent straight to you, like a note slipped under the door.

No spam, I promise: just a word now and then. Privacy Policy.
