Product quality and environmental awareness mean the world to us, literally. Every decision we make has an impact on our community and on the planet. This is why we exclusively source from companies committed to earth stewardship. We select and offer only the highest quality, organically and sustainably grown or ethically wild-harvested and pesticide-free botanicals.

Herb Shop Culture

“O world, I cannot hold thee close enough!”—Edna St. Vincent Millay. The Secret Garden views teatime and herbalism as essentials for a healthy modern culture. When our herbal tea shop opened in 2004, in Downtown San Luis Obispo, it was born out of a dream and mission to revive traditional plant medicine, to create a physical resource in the marketplace, where plants—in their most simple form—could be easily accessed. We envisioned a bulk herb store where community is created around the interconnectedness of people and plants; where inspiration to learn about and engage the natural world is practically applied, enjoyed and shared. Our goal is to creatively integrate the traditional use of bulk herbs, spices and loose leaf teas with modern society’s common lifestyle habits. We believe that everyone is an herbalist in their own right; whether a gardener, a chef, a healer, a forager, a teacher, a farmer, a tea master, a scientist, or a seeker, everyone has an herb style. Our inner herbalists are in a current state of remembrance, reverence and reawakening! The Secret Garden is committed to an herb shop culture that includes all people, where we can heal and evolve our relationship with ourselves, each other, nature and the planet.
