OVERVIEW

A member of the mint family, white sage is an aromatic evergreen shrub with tall woody stems and tiny white flowers that are a favorite food of bees. Salvia apiana is found wild in a specialized habitat consisting of sunny, arid slopes located in southern California and northwestern Mexico. Our white sage bundles are consciously collected with permission from private lands located in these areas.

White sage has been an important botanical for many indigenous cultures. For centuries, the plant was used in a variety of traditional methods including for its healthful qualities as well as in ceremonial use. Mountain Rose Herbs recognizes the long-established cultural and spiritual significance white sage holds for many tribes and the stewardship that has ensued for generations.
