🌿 Introducing Willow Hill Botanicals 🌿
We’re thrilled to share a special new branch of our journey at Apples Aren’t Native—a collaboration with our mom, Keleigh Seitz.

Together, we’ve created Willow Hill Botanicals, a local farm dedicated to bringing garden-grown wellness to our community. From fresh flowers and greens to natural healing and cleaning products for the body and home, everything we offer is rooted in care for the land and those who live on it.

At Apples Aren’t Native, our mission has always been to cultivate harmony and health within the local ecosystem. With Willow Hill Botanicals, we’re doing just that—starting right in our own backyard.

We can’t wait to share more with you soon. 💚 Stay tuned!

We’re grateful to the town for approving our permit to make soap, grow apothecary herbs and flowers, and most importantly, to provide you folks with our priceless advice. We know that sustainable living doesn’t always come with a sustainable price tag. Our mission is to change that. We have a long way to go to get our collective business s**t together, but in the meantime, Sunday only!!!, we are offering organic blueberries, kale, chard, peas, lettuce, and culinary herbs, cut flowers, lavender wands, our amazing soaps (awaiting the printer for proper labels), and native plants. 134 Mount Parnassus Rd. Please park in the driveway.
