To know...

The importance of local purchase! Medicinal plants cultivated in Quebec are more expensive, but the quality is exceptional. Our herbalists make them dry whole (with some exceptions), in the rules of the art. The plants are cultivated here and do not have to travel (polluting transport) from a distance to your home. In addition, they are always freshly dried. Paying a little more to encourage our producers from here, it's worth the investment!

Consultations

When you take internal plants for specific health problems, we strongly advise you to consult a therapist herbalist to obtain a health assessment, personalized, safe and efficient treatment, then follow -up.

You can contact Marie-Christine Vallières, herbalist, at ecolelesamesfleurs@gmail.com To make an appointment for a private consultation in videoconference ($ 80).
