Garden Hands Salve

Crafted with Whidbey-grown, human-loving plants, local beeswax, and a lot of care, Garden Hands Salve is made to support gardening hands, farmers, foragers, and anyone who loves working the land—or the people who love them. No essential oils or fragrances are added; just the plants themselves, slow-infused into organic olive oil and blended with local beeswax. While designed as a hand salve, we’ve found it equally soothing on feet, necks, and overworked muscles—offering comfort for both body and spirit after long hours outdoors.

Traditional plant allies in this salve:

Calendula flowers calm inflammation, support skin repair, help prevent irritation, and lend a cheerful, golden presence to the garden.

Lavender relaxes muscles, eases minor pain, soothes scrapes, repels insects, and supports overall calm.

Comfrey has long been used to ease muscle and joint pain, support skin healing, and comfort bruises and wounds.

Burdock root nurtures skin, reduces swelling, and reminds us to love the stubborn, deep-rooted things in life.

Cleavers cool and calm irritated skin, stimulate the lymphatic system, and help ease skin conditions like eczema or psoriasis.

Use: Rub into work-worn hands, feet, or neck whenever they need extra care. Perfect for after gardening, fieldwork, foraging, or long days outside. Let these thoughtful, local plants nurture your skin, relax your muscles, and restore a little calm to your day.

Ingredients: Whidbey-grown calendula flowers, lavender, burdock root, cleavers plant, comfrey leaf and flower  infused in olive oil, and local beeswax.

Size and packaging:  2oz, gold screw-top, food-grade tin.
