Meet the Grower Behind Alaska's Rhodiola Rosea
Meet the Grower Behind Alaska's Rhodiola Rosea
We are thrilled to announce that Naomi of Cabin Lake Farms will be our special guest on for a presentation that will change how you think about Alaskan gardening and holistic health. At the core of their work is Rhodiola rosea, a certified organic adaptogen bred for the Alaskan wild. This "golden root" is nature’s answer to stress, fatigue, and the quest for mental clarity. It’s the herb that helps you meet the demands of a busy life with the same fortitude it uses to face the Arctic elements.
You will leave empowered with knowledge on:
The Grower’s Journey: The challenges and triumphs of coaxing this Arctic super-herb to life, right here in our backyard.
Wellness in Your Hands: Practical, everyday ways to use Rhodiola to support a balanced, energetic, and vibrant life.
The Sustainable Choice: How choosing local, organic herbs like theirs nurtures not only your body but also our Alaskan ecosystem.
Come with your questions. Ask about soil pH, harvest timing, winter protection, or anything else. This is a rare chance to learn from a local who's doing the work.
Find their products at Maggie’s in Kenai, Echo Lake Meats, or SaveUMore.
