What it is?
Palo Santo (Bursera graveolens) is a particularly magical tree, and family of trees, that has been used since ancient times for healing, purification and ritual. It was and is often used by many Indigenous tribes for limpias - a technique where the smoke is used for cleansing and purification. Our Palo Santo comes from the Chiclayo region of Peru where it is ethically wildharvested by a small family of farmers. The family that we work with only uses trees that have naturally died. They do not induce death to the tree, which is often seen in Palo Santo's commerce. They also work with governmental agencies in Peru that protect and assist in reforestation of this precious and ancient tree. We would only support the most ethical extraction of this tree. We are also proud to directly support a family that has been stewards of these lands for generations.
