Balm by Design was born from Jamie’s inspiration to make herbal medicine and reconnect with the healing rhythms of the natural world. What began as a personal exploration into plant-based wellness has blossomed into a deeper practice of growing, crafting, and learning from the land. Within her permaculture food forest, Jamie cultivates a diverse array of medicinal herbs, such as calendula, chamomile, sage, and echinacea, each chosen for its beauty, purpose, and restorative power. Through mindful cultivation and small-batch creations, she transforms these plants into natural balms, teas, and tinctures that reflect her belief that healing and creativity are rooted in the same place requiring care, curiosity, and connection.
