Amy Parsons, founder of My Elderberry Fairy, has long been a believer in the immense healing powers of Nature.

​

From working in an outdoor program with at-risk youth to working with toddlers and small kids (hers and others) at a preschool co-op, Amy loved working with kids but didn’t love the germs. After getting sick one too many times, she began focusing on food as medicine. 

Amy needed a safe and natural way to support her family's wellness throughout the year. 

 

Enter Sambucus Nigra, more commonly known as the European Black Elderberry.

 

Black Elderberries are loaded with vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. They also boast powerful antiviral and immune boosting properties.  Elderberry has been shown to increase the production of special cytokines, thus strengthening and promoting immune functioning.

  

After experimenting with making her own Elderberry concoctions, it only took one season for Amy to notice the differences in her own family's wellness. Elderberry became a staple in their home.

 

This also ignited a new curiosity for additional support from nature, and expanded into studying and exploring additional ways to allow fruits, roots, and herbs to support her family throughout the year.

​

Following the wisdom of Hippocrates, My Elderberry Fairy focuses on the intention to "Let food be thy medicine, and medicine be thy food."  With every meal, with every beverage, we have the opportunity to allow foods to be our first line of defense and healing.

 

We hope that you will enjoy these wild and delicious concoctions, and all of their benefits as much as we do. And bask in the joy of allowing Nature to nourish, and wellness to flourish.  

​

From our family to yours, may you all be well.
