Hello all!
I am so happy to be sending greetings to you as the new owner of EZ Herbs. And what a time to have an opportunity to serve my community through plant medicine. I find myself feeling endlessly grateful for this unique position that I am in. My lifelong draw to nature has led me here. I couldn’t be where I am, though, without the wisdom shared by Nicole Telkes with Wildflower School of Botanical Medicine, as well as Ellen Zimmermann, founder of EZ Herbs, and countless other herbalists and community members that I have learned from and made friends with as I’ve made my way on this path. To you, I bow deeply and offer a warm “Thank You.” This shared knowledge of traditional plant medicine creates a ripple that allows us to honor the land and create a stronger community together, with Mother Earth in mind.
I have the beginnings of a small garden in my yard, but I have had the chance to observe while volunteering in other more developed gardens. I see the plants offering up what we need right now. Ellen’s Oregano plant, as she states in her article mentioned below, has been on its own growth spurt offering an abundance of its anti-viral properties. Another friend mentioned that she has found Mullein and Violet volunteers in a lot of her plant starts – both are brilliant for supporting respiratory health. Pictured here is a stunning Mullein plant in Colorado – one of the superstar ingredients of EZ Herbs Respiratory Tea as well as our Mullein/Horehound tincture which will be ready very soon.
During this time of physical distancing, I would like to offer no-contact porch delivery within the city of Austin. If you place an order with me or through the website between now and April 30th, I will contact you to arrange a delivery time that works. I would like to remove any roadblocks that might keep you from getting the herbal support that EZ Herbs can offer whether it be through a smooth, tonifying tea or a supportive nervine tincture to help soften your heart and soothe your nerves. I will also, as always, be shipping USPS within or outside of the Austin area. Please reach out if you need help. Together, we will thrive.
Wishing you happiness and health – Corey G.
Below is a note from Ellen :
I wanted to share with all my Herbal Enthusiasts my take on how to most effectively deal with the dire situation we are now facing. If you want some information on what I am doing and some of the things I recommend during this trying time, please email me at Ellenzimm@earthlink.net and I will send you a short article. Thanks so much and please, please stay healthy and STAY HOME!!!
Many Green Blessings – Ellen
