About Mary's Herb Garden
Mary's Herb Garden creates small-batch herbal tinctures, salves, and beef tallow skincare with short ingredient lists, clear purpose, and carefully sourced ingredients.
Everything is made me, Tricia Gieseke, in small quantities using ingredients I knows and trusts. This is not a mass-produced brand or a corporate operation. It is one person making herbal products with care, simplicity, and intention.
How it all started
A few years ago, a friend of the family came home from the woods with a serious cut on his leg. He had it bandaged with Usnea, a lichen that grows on trees. He told me about it's healing properties and I was intrigued.
Then my sister called and asked me to make a salve with usnea, and shared a recipe. I figured, why not try? I made it, saw enough to start paying closer attention, and got curious about the plants God has provided through the natural world.
What started as something I made for my own family slowly became something more. A small batch for a friend. Then another. Then a few more. Eventually it became Mary's Herb Garden — a small-batch herbal brand rooted in care, trust, and a desire to make products with a clear purpose.
Made by hand, by me, for people who want to know exactly what they're putting on their skin and why it's there.
