I asked her about what I was looking for and she immediately brought me to it (they had two to choose from). She explained the differences to me then left me to decide and explore. I appreciated that she was so helpful but also not pushy or hovering after she answered my question. I explored the rest of the store and even grabbed another tea to try. The store has a lot of teas and spices in various sizes. It was well organized and stocked. They all had various tea and spice related items. When I checked out she told me that if I bring the container back they will refill with any tea and take $3 off the purchase which I thought was great! I will be back to get my chai tea here from now on.

They even have incense like frankincense and murr. Also one more very important thing, the quality of the herbs they have is unbeatable, Amazon herbs can't compare. Lavender for example, I looked everywhere for a good quality lavender, I only found one supplier on eBay, but come to find out herbstomp has an even better lavender. The lemon balm they have smells like actual lemons. They have every herb I need to help me with sleep. Don't let the bad reviews discourage you from coming here! Kratom is not my thing, but they also have that as well, kanna, wild dagga, and other things I've never even heard of

They also have a really nice selection of stones and incense and beautiful little wooden boxes and storage containers for all of it. The staff was really friendly and knowledgeable when I had questions about their products. They didn't follow me around or chase me down to make sure everything was ok (thank god!), but when I went to the counter they were so helpful about what I had to ask, even providing a lot of tips and general helpful advice. It was clear that they knew what their stuff was! I will be coming back and recommending it as I can!

The shop is maintained beautifully, and my group was greeted warmly by Catherine who was working the store during my visit. She gave my group a thorough explanation of all the specialty salts available, and explained the differences in cultivation & flavor profiles of fleur de sel, sel gris, flake, smoked, and shio salts just to name a few. I loved trying the chocolate salt! We also learned about all the different origins and makers of the chocolates available as well. Catherine was extremely knowledgeable and attentive to detail, she made the shopping experience feel fun and comfortable. We ended up purchasing the black truffle salt, sel gris, hana flake salt, the meadow's own backyard blackberry patch & strawberry dark chocolate bars, a few other dark chocolate bars, some of the delectable small individual chocolates at the counter - and we couldn't resist also buying the cutest tiny fairy star salt spoon, too. Amazing experience, and everything was so delicious - I would definitely visit again!

They have 2 walls that are 5 shelves high with glass jars full of all the dried plants listing descriptions for each one so you can decide what you need. I've been with this shop since 2008. This shop helped me get rid of horrible, itchy acne I had for 2 years that not even the dermatologists at OHSU could remedy (sure, I had to drink a special tea 3x a day, take herbal capsules 2x a day and steam a few times a week - cleared up in 2 months!). Whether you're a novice or make your own plant medicine, this is the place to go. I will note that sometimes there can be very inexperienced herbalists working on their own who won't be able to answer questions or help you find a solution. Do a little research and follow your gut.

Commitment to quality is experienced in their beautiful chocolate - the eponymous (house) label made by local chocolatier RANGER, alongside a multitude of other local & global brands, pastas, and pantry goods. I came looking for something spicy, and the "FLEUR DE HELL" (play on words - see their "fleur de sel" SALT subscription online) DARK CHOCOLATE is everything - ghost pepper, red pepper flake, and sea salt that makes it savory, spicy, and sweet all at the same time.

Cherry cordials, pear cordials, apple cordials in chocolates. Caramel chocolates, chocolate caramels. Thing is it's hard for not to love the store because it has three of my favorite things: 1. chocolate: shelves and shelves of unique artisan chocolates made with skill and care from all over the world. 2. And salt -- am a VERY big fan of picking up local salts whenever one is traveling -- including actual blocks and blocks of Himalayan salt stacked. Not imitation but the real stuff. They even have fresh popcorn for you to taste the truffle salt with. 3. Lastly they have fresh cut flowers. It's like a florist and you can create your own bouquets. Beautiful specimens with structure and freshness. I have to say they also have bottles and bottles of bitters -- crafted bitters. King Floyd chief among them. The staff person was super helpful. She was kind and educational about many things.
