Due to customs and airline restrictions, many of the natural products we stock—such as seeds, botanicals, essential oils, and some cosmetic ingredients—are limited or restricted for export.

You’re welcome to arrange your own international courier (UPS, FedEx, Aramex, or others) to collect your order. Our dispatch team can provide parcel weights and dimensions to help with your freight booking.

We deliver to all freight forwarding agents within South Africa, and delivery is free on orders over R500. Please note that you may be responsible for any duties or taxes once your order arrives in your country—your freight forwarder or courier can provide more details.

If needed, feel free to ask us for our SARS export license number.

We ship thousands of parcels every month and we are very aware that this comes at a cost to the environment. Therefore we have decided to invest in carbon credits from reputable projects in order to offset the carbon emissions produced from parcel deliveries.

We decided to not only go carbon neutral, but to go carbon negative. We don't want to just neutralise our delivery emissions but actually put back into the environment: be pro planet. Interested in how we achieve this? See more here.

Some products in our range are marked with a “Stock Delay” on their product pages. This means they may take a bit longer to ship than usual. Please take any stock delays into account when placing your order to help manage expectations.

In addition to stock delays, sometimes unexpected factors like adverse weather, load shedding, strikes, or other unforeseen events can impact delivery times. While these situations are rare, they can occasionally cause delays beyond our control.

If you ever feel unsure about where your parcel is or when it might arrive, please don’t hesitate to contact us with your order details. Our team is here to assist and will gladly check the status for you.
