Space Acres Botanicals and Forest Bathing
Space Acres Botanicals is a huge lover of forest bathing. While everyone was in lock down, we created a virtual forest bathing experience that was presented at the 33rd annual American Herbalists Guild Symposium in Bethesda MD.
Please enjoy the presentation here, and let this beautiful meditative forest exploration whisk you away into a place of calm and balance.
The digital accompaniment to the collection can be downloaded here.

TESTIMONIALS
“I was so excited about these salves, I ordered one of each as soon as they became available. The aromatherapy of each salve instantly feels like a recharging walk through the forest. The salves have helped my dry, red, itchy hands from so much hand sanitizing. I have very sensitive skin and appreciate the all natural ingredients. It is both mild and effective, leaving my skin feeling revived. Thank you for this thoughtful product.”
- Jeanne, Kingston, NY
“I received it as a gift from my son. It's useful and the packaging is my style! I reordered 3 months later when I ran out. Quick, easy ordering. Prompt response by Zarah and I have my gentle remedy in an adorable sac to take along this little treasure of Warrior Salve! Lovely experience for sensitive my skin. Thanks!”
-Ann, Bushkill PA
“Evergreen Salve: When I opened it, what hit me was the awesome evergreen scent- fresh and natural. I use it on my hands to treat dry areas and seasonal eczema on my fingers. The salve is very soothing and effective which is super important since I use my hands for my work. My husband also appreciates the smell and uses the salve on various dry skin areas. My 6 yr old daughter has sensitive skin and dislikes any topical that is minty or “stings”. I use Evergreen Salve on her to treat mosquito bites, chapped lips, mild sunburn, scratches, itchy rashes, and any other minor skin irritation. She feels good after I apply the salve, calms down, and crisis is averted :)”

“Evergreen Salve is great for dry hands here in the desert. A little goes a long way--I apply a small dab before bed and wake up feeling the difference. When used regularly, I don't get the painful annoying cracks that are common, especially during winter, on my drum-playing, dish-washing knuckles and fingertips. Plus, Space Acres Botanicals is WOC-owned and gathers and produces responsibly in small batches. Yes, please.”

“Received my salve and it is AMAZING! The scent is so light and refreshing. I have very sensitive skin and it is gentle yet still moisturizes. Will definitely order more. Thank you!
-Nicole, New Jersey
“I’ve been using the warrior salve after my workouts and it’s helped in my recovery of sore muscles and aches. It’s also helped relieve pain in my hand. I’ve used the evergreen salve for my dry skin. Sometimes I just smell it for its calming effect. You have to rub them in really well to get the best result and not have any residue on the skin.”
-Ken, New York City
“With the freshness of the forest greens, the salve soothes and refreshes skin. Thank you Space Acres.”
