California’s diverse landscapes hold an herbal library of their own. Coastal Sagebrush scents the hills, while Yerba Santa grows in dry chaparral, its sticky leaves once used by Indigenous peoples for breath and spirit.
At Lhasa Karnak, we honor these plants by offering cultivated or ethically harvested versions whenever possible. Yerba Buena, California Poppy, and Bay Laurel remind us that medicine can grow right outside the door.
Learning local flora reconnects herbalism to place — and makes every cup of tea a conversation with the land beneath our feet.
