Kristin Belk is a clinical herbalist and holistic wellness counselor who has gained much of her experience working closely with clients and creating herbal formulas for specific needs. ​ Kindling was begun with the desire to bring comfort and relief to our wider community in need. All of our herbs are blended by hand, slowly and with intention. ​ 100% of our herbs come from organic suppliers who are themselves, or who support small and fair trade farms and who are grounded in sustainable principles and practices. ​ Our long-term goal is to grow most of our own herbs, in order to ensure that our teas retain the highest level of nutrients, minerals and vitality. ​ On the grounds of our farm, we hope to create a sanctuary where our community can come and find peace.
