My name is Kevin Hennessy, I am a 60's Scoop Adoptee. After many years of searching, I was able to find out where I belonged and who my people were.
As a way of integrating myself into my community and learning the uses of the land, my wife and I created this avenue. We saw a need and also a way to give back to my people.
We have learned everything by research and had a lady on my reserve who knows a lot about different plants and medicines. We grow our own Calendula and many of the medicines that go into our salves. We try to use as much natural product in our creations as we can. We also hand harvest as much as can and dry it and infuse it. It's been a fun little adventure and we've learned a lot. We continue to strive to bring our people the best possible product as we can to both help the people and also protect Mother Earth as much as we can.
