On September 8, 2020, the Creek Fire raged through California’s Sierra Nevada mountains. That night, we lost our cabin and 6 acres of forest. It would burn 379,895 acres before being contained. The first thing to emerge from the desolate gray landscape was the California Bay Laurel.

We all know bay leaves are a key ingredient in soups and other savory dishes. This variety is stronger than the more common Mediterranean bay leaf, consider using a smaller piece or remove from your cooking sooner.

Insects don’t like bay leaves. Place a few in an open glass jar and store in your cupboards.

Burning bay leaves, much like sage, can clear and cleanse the energy of a space. It’s also said to be a calming agent and a means of manifesting good fortune.

Considered a valuable and medicinal herb since ancient times, the combination of chemicals in the leaves creates smoke that calms the mind and offers a natural air freshener for your home.

Ready for gift giving, packaged in a gold box with clear lid, each one comes with a small bit of amethyst. Amethyst crystals in a home can create tranquility and alleviate negative energy.

A portion of all sales will be donated back to the community, to replant trees and help with clearing the land after the fire.
