Small Batch Herbal Remedies for Everyday Life
These remedies were originally created to solve everyday problems in my own home — dry skin, tired muscles, irritated spots, and the need for simple comfort during hard seasons. Over time, those same formulas began helping friends, neighbors, and customers who wanted herbal support that was gentle, effective, and made with intention.
Every salve, liniment, serum, and infused soap is crafted in small batches using traditional herbal methods. No fillers, no fluff — just botanicals that have supported people for generations.
Created for real people who need:
• Comfort after long days
• Gentle support for sensitive or irritated skin
• Herbal help for everyday aches and tension
• Simple rituals that make life feel a little easier

I’m Heather — a Traditional Western & Folk Herbalist and the maker behind B.A.D. Apothecary.
I didn’t plan on becoming a soapmaker. Another herbal maker asked if I could learn how to make soap for her because she didn’t have the time, and I agreed — mostly because I didn’t have anything better to focus on. My family was still navigating life after the loss of my 13‑year‑old son, and everything felt heavy and quiet.
Then one afternoon, while I was attempting yet another batch of soap that went hilariously wrong, my mom and my daughter Becca started laughing — really laughing — for the first time since his passing. That moment stopped me. I realized this messy little project was giving us something we desperately needed: a spark of joy again.
So I kept going. Becca, who was twelve then (and is twenty‑one now), became my original soaping assistant. My mom jumped in too. What began as a way to bring light back into our home slowly grew into the salves, oils, soaps, and herbal creations I make today.
These products weren’t created for shelves — they were created for my family, with intention, comfort, and simplicity at the center.
Now I make them for you, too.
My formulas stay simple, gentle, and approachable because caring for your skin and your daily rituals shouldn’t feel complicated or expensive.
