Hawthorn & Violet grew out of a love for the natural world and gardens.  Rebecca and her husband, Pete had their very first garden together on the balcony of their shared flat in England back in 1999.  They’ve gardened in rain and in the dark under spotlights and with babies in swings, because there is never enough time in the day when it comes to people who love to garden.  

 

Rebecca began to delve into medicinal uses of plants in 2011, started studying naturopathy in 2012 and completed her studies in 2017.  Hawthorn & Violet was started as a naturopathic consultation business in 2017, but it soon became clear we wanted to offer the best of products to our clients right on location.  Thus the apothecary was born and our shop opened March 23, 2019.

 

Rebecca continues to offer naturopathic consultations to clients and teaches classes at the shop and as a guest speaker at other venues..
