She's knows what she's talking about not somebody who's just trying to sell you alcohol in a bottle with coloring. Nor would she tell you whatever you want to hear in order to sell a product she is honest and down to earth and knows her skills very well the price is worth it, don't double guess it. Consultation is the best way to go.

I now buy one pound of an herb from Sage Woman for the same price I used to pay for a tiny bottle of capsules from other companies! Recommended by Stephen Buhner and it's awesome they have all the Buhner herbs. Next day shipping and fast response to emails!

The absolute best! Even when I was young they've been great, now in my 40s they're still great! They're very knowledgeable, respectful to customers & the herbs and know where things come from. Unlike other apothecaries in town, the owner actually is genuine. Plus the staff is clean, friendly and attentive.

Great products and service. I might suggest getting a motion activated sink if you want us to wash our hands before coming in the actual store. If anyone with covid came in and used your sink they would still put their germs on the handles you have to turn off and on. Kind of defeats the purpose as does washing your hands cause you still can't touch anything which makes getting herbs difficult.

I had an excellent experience here. The staff was knowledgeable, helpful and affable. The ambience and energy were top tier. I can't remember the girl's name who helped me with the Oregon Grape Root. but she was great as well. Thankyou!

First off this place right if the back is a great stop. We went in we greater and asked if we had a lidy or wanted to look around we did both and realized they had more then we realize. The women in this staff is so supportive of eachother and it shows in the friendly vibes they give off. Please visit this place if you you want good herbs and spices. Prices are also some of the best I've seen on my road trip.

All in all a great place with quality products at decent prices. Staff is friendly and well trained! Only issue is their selection of dry herbs, would like to see a bit more variety but still the best place in town to go.
