At Herban Works, our mission is to offer women with adverse life experiences the opportunity to work, develop a range of skills and life-giving experiences, and generate income in a safe and dignified space.
About
All our products are handmade by a grassroots collaborative of Maine women who work to break isolation, build community, and invest in their own healing and development.
Ingredients are grown and processed at the Center for Wisdom’s Women in downtown Lewiston, Maine.
100% of the profits are invested into Herban Works, as we continue to socially and financially support local women and share our knowledge of herbal healing with our community.
