St John's Wort Oil- Seasonal

St John’s Wort Oil — Seasonal Wildcrafted Infusion

Wildcrafted in the High Country at the height of summer, this St John’s Wort oil is made from freshly harvested flowering tops, gathered when the plant is in full bloom and at its most vibrant.

Infused immediately after harvest, the fresh plant material is slowly steeped in oil over several weeks. As it macerates, the oil deepens into its characteristic red hue .. due to the presence of naturally occurring compounds such as hypericin, which are drawn out during the infusion process.

This method of working with fresh plant material allows for a fuller expression of the botanical, capturing the plant at its seasonal peak.

St John’s Wort has long been regarded as a plant of midsummer. In traditional European herbal practices, it was often gathered around the summer solstice, when the days are longest and the sun at its highest point, carrying associations with warmth, light, and seasonal transition.

Historically, it has been used in topical preparations as a botanical oil applied to the skin as part of daily body care rituals, often chosen for its soothing and nourishing feel.

This is a true seasonal offering, made in small batches only when the plant can be ethically wild-harvested. Each bottle reflects the timing, landscape, and conditions of that particular harvest.
