Philosophy
Moonrise Herbs is proud to supply over 300 bulk herbs
and tea blends. We make sure to search for only the
highest quality herbs available on the market. Whenever
possible, they are organically grown or ethically wildcrafted.
We buy from small companies to assure great quality,
vibrancy, color and scent. We also create several tea
blends ourselves. Popular choices include Radiant Skin
tea, Peaceful tea, and our Hang in There Baby.
Questions we ask ourselves when considering new
products:
- How does it feel to us?
- Does the company have a philosophy that feels good?
- What is the cost? To us? To the customer?
- Where is the company located geographically?
- What does the packaging look like? Is is over packaged?
Is it tasteful or gaudy?
- Do they use recycled material when possible?
- Is it a unique product? Does any store in town
carry the same product?
- If a supplement, does it have supporting literature?
- What is the quality of the product? How well is
it made? Are ingredients organic?
- Is it fair trade?
- Is it a small family owned company or a huge corporation
or subsidiary?
- How easy is it to contact the company for questions?
Fair Trade
Fair trade is an organized social movement which promotes
standards for international labour, environmentalism,
and social policy in areas related to production of
Fairtrade labeled and unlabelled goods. The movement
focuses in particular on exports from developing countries
to developed countries and insures fair payment to producers
of goods. Buyers at Moonrise Herbs purchase try to only
purchase our statuary, jewelry and gifts from vendors
who honor fair trade.
