Bethel Botanicals is a small family business. It first began with Erika's love of the land, her study of herbs, and her need for a healing skin cream during radiation treatment for breast cancer. Two creams recommended to her were both petroleum based and she didn’t want to use them due to their potential toxicity.
Our Mission: To produce and distribute the highest quality natural and organic products in ways that protect and honor our earth and all life on it.
Our Goals: To produce and distribute the highest quality natural and organic products with a focus for people involved in cancer treatments. To provide education and information about the power and potential of organic and natural products in our homes and our lives as well as in and on our bodies. To provide access to hard-to-find natural and organic products which promote and sustain life
Our Values: Commitment - We live in and are committed to a world and a world view that has at its core balance and harmony. Respect, trust and care taking of the land and all of the life on it will make a difference, will bear fruit, figuratively as well as literally. This means we must practice patience, understanding and forbearance. It sometimes also helps to take a long view. Excellence - We believe in and support excellence in the quality of our products, in our responsibility and responsiveness to the customer and consumer, and in our interactions with each other. Integrity - We believe that honesty, probity and integrity can be found in products, in people and in companies. These qualities need to be honored and promoted by each one of us as individuals, in our team work, in our customer service and in our products. People - It is only in the respectful relation to each other that we can achieve the other values.
With good health or through illness, we need to nourish our bodies inside and out. Providing nourishing and healing products that are grown or manufactured without potentially harming human life, animal life or our earth is the promise from our family business. Our lands in Vermont which we have owned for twenty years, logged with horses, plowed, green manured, planted, and are harvesting are part of this commitment. We are also dedicated to offering information about health, healing and organics as we provide access to natural and organic products that are difficult to find.
At Bethel Botanicals, our products are the very best! All our products are made with the best quality natural ingredients, organic when it is possible and the cost does not make a product prohibitively expensive. We test the products we make and try to test and use those we buy and distribute. There is no animal testing on any product that we make or distribute. All products that we manufacture are labeled as comprehensively as possible. As important as what we put into our products is what we leave out. There are no artificial colors, flavors, preservatives, wetting agents such as sodium lauryl sulfate, or artificial fragrances. The quality of each product that is produced and of those that are distributed through Bethel Botanicals is carefully monitored. And we listen to our customers.
