Our Roots in NY

Our journey began over two decades ago when Alexandra Spadea and her husband, John McDowell—a musician and composer—embraced a sustainable lifestyle on Camp Hill Farm.

Living harmoniously with nature, they cultivated organic herbs and flowers, drawing inspiration from the land's abundant resources in loving

 care for our earth.

natural connection to Nature's

receive & share.
