"For centuries smudging, the burning of aromatic herbs, has been practiced among Native Americans to purify objects and locations. Mountain Sage (Artemisia tridentata) and Pefume Sage dispel negative energy and attract positive forces. They strengthen the mind and rejuvenate the spirit. Sweetgrass attracts positive energies, relaxes, facilitates connection within ceremonial group. It is traditionally used in search for vision. Perfume sage, Sweetgrass, and Mountain Sage for Global Shaman® Smudge Wands are gathered with great care and respect for the environment by Native Americans." © Windrose Trading Company |

Fair-Trade Statement:Our supplier of these smudges obtains them from a Native American reservation cooperative. Being one of the few economic opportunities in this financially-impoverished area, this mutual arrangement provides income and hope for the reservation, while enriching the lives of those receiving the smudges with the ancient and revered tradition of smudging. The different sage plants and botanicals are harvested responsibly and sustainably from reservation lands, where our supplier has visited. The visit provided a first-hand account, witnessing the working conditions and the state of the land. |
