I have been using the Harvesting Vitality Herbal Honey’s for years. I absolutely love them. They are extremely convenient since they can be consumed plain or in hot water. Catie masterfully blends the herbs in a combination that is both palatable and effective. (Even for my kids!) Catie also created some custom herbal honey’s to suit the needs of my family. Her product is of the highest quality, which is why I am a customer for life!

These honeys are incredible! While I enjoy most of them, my favorite is Salin’ the C’s. I can taste the rosehips so fully it makes me smile. I have a young child in school, so there is a constant stream of sickness making its way through his school. In an effort to keep us well, I put this delicious honey in our teas as well as eat it by the spoonful.

Catie's honeys have comforted and aided in my family's recovery from many colds and illnesses. I highly recommend!

Catie makes quality and tasty medicinal honeys. Each formula delivers a well rounded product.
