Sacred Giving: Our Slow, Gentle Alternative to Black Friday

A Little About Sacred Giving

While the rest of the world races through Black Friday and Cyber Monday, refreshing carts and chasing countdown clocks, we prefer to move in the opposite direction. We don't see this weekend as a competition. We see it as a chance to slow things down.

Sacred Giving is our answer to the frenzy. Instead of pushing harder or shouting louder, we created something softer, something rooted in gratitude rather than urgency. During BFCM, every time you choose to shop with us, we give something back. Not points, not gimmicks, but a literal gift sent straight to your inbox after your order is placed.

It's our way of honoring the decision to step outside the noise and support a small herb company that tries to do things with intention.

How Sacred Giving Works

The concept is simple. When you place an order with us during Black Friday and Cyber Monday weekend, we send you a Sacred Gift Code based on your order total. These codes arrive by email shortly after your order is paid, and each one is single-use and valid through the winter.

This gives you time to choose what you truly want, without the pressure of limited-time offers or expiration anxiety. We believe gifts should feel generous, not rushed.

Orders over $150 also qualify for free shipping, one more way to make this weekend feel lighter, calmer, and more human.

Why We Created Sacred Giving

We've always believed that the holidays should feel different than the rest of the year. Not busier, not louder, but more intentional. The original spirit of Black Friday was about gratitude and togetherness, about pausing before the rush of December to appreciate what we have.

Somewhere along the way, that got lost. We wanted to bring it back.

Sacred Giving is our way of saying thank you. Thank you for slowing down. Thank you for choosing intention over impulse. Thank you for supporting the work we love: growing herbs with care, honoring the seasons, and doing business with heart.

We grow many of our herbs using Korean Natural Farming methods in partnership with regenerative farms like I·M·POSSIBLE Farm. Every batch is third-party tested for purity and botanical identity. We don't cut corners, and we don't rush the process. Quality takes time, and we'd rather do things right than do them fast.

The Gifts That Keep Giving

Many of our customers use Sacred Giving weekend to stock up on herbs they love, try something new, or start their holiday shopping early. Our teas, tinctures, and herbal blends make thoughtful gifts for the wellness-minded people in your life.

We offer everything from single-origin botanicals to specialty blends, each one chosen for quality and traditional use. Whether you're drawn to calming nervines like skullcap and passionflower, immune-supporting herbs like elderberry and echinacea, or culinary favorites like hibiscus and butterfly pea flower, we have something for every kind of herbalist.

What Makes Our Herbs Different

We take sourcing seriously. Every herb we sell is third-party tested and comes with a Certificate of Analysis listing heavy metal levels, microbial counts, and botanical verification. We work directly with regenerative farms whenever possible, prioritizing soil health and biodiversity over yield.

Our Eternal Extraction Method for tinctures sets us apart. Unlike most glycerin extracts that steep for weeks, ours follow the lunar calendar for an entire year, allowing the herbs to release their compounds slowly and completely. The result is a richer, more potent extract with a depth you won't find elsewhere.

We also believe in transparency. If a batch doesn't meet our standards, we don't sell it. If we can't verify the origin of an herb, we don't stock it. This approach costs us time and money, but it's the only way we know how to operate.

Sacred Gifts for Every Kind of Connection

Some of our most beloved items during the holidays aren't herbs at all. They're the pieces that help people slow down, connect with nature, or express their values in everyday ways.

Our Marimo moss balls have become unexpected favorites for gift-giving. These living algae spheres require almost no maintenance, just clean water and indirect light. They photosynthesize gently in their glass homes, growing slowly over decades. People tell us they find them meditative to watch, a quiet reminder that growth doesn't have to be rushed.

How to Participate in Sacred Giving

Participating is simple. All qualifying orders that check out during between Nov. 27th and Dec. 1st 2025 will receive a Sacred Gift Code. Your code will arrive by email shortly after your order is processed.

There's no need to rush. Our inventory is stocked, our team is ready, and we're here all weekend. Take your time, and choose what feels right for you or the people you're shopping for.

Beyond the Transaction

Sacred Giving isn't just about codes and discounts. It's about creating a different kind of experience during a weekend that often feels transactional and overwhelming.

We don't use countdown timers. We don't create artificial scarcity. We don't send you dozens of reminder emails. Instead, we trust that the people who resonate with what we're doing will find us when they're ready.

This approach doesn't make us the biggest herb company, but it does make us the kind of company we want to be. One that prioritizes relationship over reach, quality over quantity, and long-term trust over short-term gains.

When you shop with us during Sacred Giving weekend, you're not just buying herbs. You're supporting regenerative farming practices, independent lab testing, year-long extraction processes, and a business model that refuses to cut corners. You're voting with your dollars for a different way of doing commerce.

The Invitation

This Black Friday, we invite you to slow down with us. To choose intention over impulse. To support the kind of business practices you want to see more of in the world.

Whether you're stocking your apothecary, starting a new herbal practice, or searching for meaningful gifts, we're here. Our doors are open, our inventory is ready, and we're genuinely grateful you're considering spending part of your weekend with us.

Sacred Giving runs through Cyber Monday. Every order qualifies. Every gift code comes with our appreciation and the hope that you'll use it to explore something new when the time feels right.

Thank you for slowing down. Thank you for choosing intention. Thank you for supporting the work we love.
