About Flora+Fungi Apothecary

Inspired by the forest and all the botanical treasures it holds. The core of our mission is creating artisanal cosmetics using plants native to the Great Lakes Bio-region to connect you to the spirit of the forest. From forest to face- we specialize in the extraction of botanical compounds. Plants are harvested at the peak of their season from healthy ecosystems. Some plants are dried to be used in oil infusions, other plants are steam distilled to obtain their hydrosols and essential oils. Others are treated with solvents such as glycerine and alcohol to obtain potent extracts to incorporate into our products. Honoring the rhythms of the nature is central to our process, formulating products with plants which are in season in small batches. We combine modern scientific research into wild flora and fungi with traditional plant knowledge of the indigenous cultures of North America to create modern products rooted in ancient traditions. FLORA+FUNGI is run by Amanda Derocher. Amanda is a graduate of Formula Botanica's Accredited Organic Skincare Science School.
