Rooted in Nature, Built on Family
Cayla MandeanHave you ever felt overwhelmed by natural wellness and hormonal health? I know I've been there.
There's so much information and even more noise. One article says one thing, a label promises another. One week, it's a miracle ingredient; the next, it's a red flag.
It's no wonder so many of us end up more confused than empowered.
All you wanted to do was support your body, to make good choices… and suddenly, you're knee-deep in jargon, wondering who you can depend on.
Between the buzzwords, quick fixes, and endless marketing claims, it's so easy to feel lost. So many of us reach a point where we just want to know what's real. What can we trust? What's actually good for us?
At Essentially Natural, we understand that confusion deeply. That's why we cherish partnerships with brands like Flowers From My Meadow-heart-driven and family-led makers who remind us what honesty, integrity, and true craft look like.
How It All Began
For Mike and Tash, the founders of Flowers From My Meadow, this journey didn't start in a boardroom but in their kitchen out of necessity, curiosity, and love. What started small became a gift for thousands: a movement of women and families reconnecting with nature's quiet intelligence.
"It began as a seed of necessity-the need for pure, small-batch botanicals that weren't industrial, diluted, or synthetic," they share. "We started creating for ourselves, and what began as personal remedies soon grew into something far bigger," exclaims Mike and Tash.
We remember the first time we tried their Wild Yam Cream. All the women on our team were gifted a jar. It was so generous and something truly unique. It wasn't just the ingredients that caught our attention; it was the intention, the story, and the energy behind it. It made us curious to ask: what makes this brand so different?
"Flowers From My Meadow isn't just a brand-it's a love story. Between people, between family, and between humans and plants. Every jar is a conversation with nature that we're honoured to share."
Mike and Tash recall their humble beginnings with laughter and the sound of their old hand blender courageously churning through the first batches of cream. "Back then, five jars felt like a mountain," they say. Today, that memory keeps them grounded. Humble. It reminds them why small-batch matters.
We love that about Flowers From My Meadow-their humility and humour.
They don't chase trends; they answer needs. As they so beautifully put it:
"Every cream, tincture, and tea is born from a story-a real person, a real imbalance, a real solution. That connection gives everything purpose."
And in a world where "natural" has become a marketing term, they've worked to reclaim it as a way of life.
"We wanted to take that word back. To show that slow, honest, intentional craft still exists-even if it starts on a kitchen counter.
