We’re passionate permaculture farmers & homesteaders who create what goes in and on our bodies from the ground up while supporting local farmers and businesses. Wild Wanderers began with the need to pay a car payment in 24 hours. We collected calendula and lavender from the garden, and I made the farm-to-face body butter I make for my family. We sold out almost immediately and quickly realized how vital our clean, transparent farm fresh skincare was to our community. The products I make for my family are healing eczema, psoriasis, rashes, cuts, burns, dry skin, acne, and so on! The more we dove into the business and our community, the more we became aware of how corrupt the skincare & herbal industry is. We wanted to provide a safe source for internal and external healing while using homegrown, wildly crafted, sustainable herbs & botanicals and supporting only transparent sources for oils, butter, salts, etc. We are a no-debt business that’s struggled only to support ethical companies, never supporting big box stores or large corporations for product sourcing, packaging, jars, etc., despite the extra cost. We are driven to make a more significant impact than our products by setting an example for sustainable, ethical businesses to support and push each other to succeed. Each dollar is a vote. We hope you vote on us, and we will continue to pay that dollar forward to those who deserve it.
