THE SEASONAL APOTHECARY
Build your herbal medicine cupboard, one month at a time.
Forage. Preserve. Prepare. Be ready. Subscriptions starting from £15 per month.
Imagine opening a cupboard filled with jars, bottles and tins that you've made yourself..
• Elderberry syrup that you made yourself.
• Calendula oil.
• Remedies for colds & flu.
• Herbal teas for every season.
• Fire cider.
• A soothing balm for bumps and bruises.
Not because you spent years studying herbalism...
but because you spent one enjoyable afternoon each month following the rhythm of the seasons.
By the end of the year you'll have built your own natural apothecary—one herb, one project and one remedy at a time.
Every month you'll receive your Seasonal Apothecary collection
Each month is beautifully timed with what's growing and ready to harvest.
You'll receive everything you need in one go, so you can choose a day that suits you and enjoy creating at your own pace.
Each month includes:
🌿 Gather Something
Discover what's in season and where to find it. Prefer not to forage? We'll also recommend trusted places to buy quality herbs.
🫙 Preserve Something
Learn simple ways to dry, infuse, freeze or store herbs so they're ready when you need them.
🧴 Make Something
Create a practical herbal remedy you'll actually use—from oils and tinctures to syrups, salves, teas and more.
Each project builds naturally on the last, so your herbal cupboard grows with the seasons.
This isn't about becoming a herbalist.
It's about becoming someone who naturally has remedies ready.
It's about becoming the sort of person who can say...
"I've already made this year's calendula oil."
"I've got elderflower drying upstairs."
"There's some thyme syrup in the cupboard if anyone gets a cough."
That quiet confidence is what we're building together.
Every recipe is one you'll actually use.
These aren't random recipes collected from social media. Every project has been carefully selected and approved by a practising herbalist with over 25 years of experience, helping you create a practical herbal medicine cupboard for everyday family life.
Alongside your monthly projects you'll also receive:
• Seasonal harvesting guidance
• Printable recipe cards
• Storage tips
• Buying recommendations if you can't forage
• Access to our private Facebook community
• Weekly inspiration, seasonal reminders and gentle encouragement
Perfect for you if...
- You'd love a cupboard full of natural remedies you've made yourself.
- You don't have time for long herbalism courses.
- You enjoy seasonal living and working with nature.
- You'd like simple projects you can complete in an afternoon.
- You want to feel more prepared and less reliant on rushing to the shops whenever someone feels unwell.
choose your supporter level
We believe these practical skills should be available to everyone, whatever their circumstances.
That's why The Seasonal Apothecary is offered with three optional support levels. Every supporter receives exactly the same Monthly Collection, resources and community—the only difference is the contribution you choose to make.
Our £10 Companion level helps keep the subscription affordable and accessible, while those who choose our higher support levels are helping us strengthen the community, create new resources and continue the wider work of the People's Food & Farming Alliance.
Whichever level feels right for you, thank you. By becoming part of The Seasonal Apothecary, you're not only building your own herbal medicine cupboard one season at a time, you're also helping to keep practical, traditional skills alive and available for others to enjoy.
Imagine 12 months from now...
You open a cupboard and see rows of jars, bottles and tins.
Each one reminds you of a walk, a sunny afternoon, a hedge full of elderflowers, or a handful of calendula picked from your garden.
You've slowly built something incredibly valuable.
Not just a cupboard full of remedies... ...but the confidence that comes from knowing you've made them yourself.
Join us inside The Seasonal Apothecary.
One season. One herb. One project at a time.
