Directions

Plant based healing products designed to continue a mission of natural healthcare. I believe that I am finally on the path God intended for me to walk.

I am striving to offer people all natural healing plant based products, and continue a mission of healthcare I have been dedicated to for more than 30 years. I decided on the the name Genesis Apothecary because the definition of Genesis is: beginning, origin, or beginning, and an apothecary is an old term for pharmacy. Genesis 1:29 Then God said, Behold, I have given you every seed-bearing plant on the face of all the earth, and every tree whose fruit contains seed. They will be yours for food. Our food has changed drastically over the course of the last number of decades, but it truly IS medicinal...for the body, and the soul. If we all work together, we can get back to our ancestral roots and a better overall well-being. Disclaimer: None of the information provided here is intended to diagnose or treat disease processes, and though I wholeheartedly believe in herbal and holistic medicine, I encourage you to discuss any questions such as interactions with prescription medications with your medical doctor. Feel free to message me with questions or concerns.

Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy!

Happy Halloween!

To mark the occasion, this year I'm in the kitchen, creating our last of this year's small batch hotsauce... Dragon's Blood is coming soon, and I have a feeling it's going to be yummy.

Stay healthy y'all!

Well, this weekend has been busy! It's good, because it keeps my mind off other things.

The garden is mostly prepped for next year already, carrots (black and red) have been canned, sauerkraut canned and another batch in the crock, peppers are drying, and deconstructed cabbage rolls canned!

Now... this week I have to get the garlic in the ground and the newest batch of fire c***r bottled!

Thank goodness for having a partner who loves doing all of this as much as I do. We can sleep when we're dead, right?! 🤣

Cold and flu season is approaching quickly, and school is back in session... let us know if there are products you are in need of!

Stay healthy y'all!

Label is still pending, but the latest hot sauce bottling is complete.

Toxic Avenger is the result of Deadpool peppers and Thor's Hammers falling in love with mango, garlic, and basil...
..this little tempest is NOT midwest spicy (🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥/5 heat scale), but she is downright delicious!

Personally, I can hardly wait to try it on fish tacos!

We like creating hot sauces for those who enjoy varying degrees of heat without sacrificing flavor. We believe eating for nourishment should also be satisfying, and hope there's someone out there who will enjoy this one too!

Stay healthy y'all!

We spent some time in the kitchen again today... imagine that.

My better half made another batch of delicious and savory tomato jam for a tasty addition to our winter roasted vegetables.

I on the other hand, played mad scientist, and concocted another hot sauce. I think I'm going to call this one Toxic Avenger as a nod to the hot peppers it was created with... Thor's Hammer, and my not so secret crush, Deadpool. 🥰❤️😂

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥/5 heat level

Blended in apple c***r vinegar with roasted sweet onions, bell peppers, garlic, mango, honey, and basil. I suspect the flavors to come together beautifully as it's already quite a surprise.

Thank you to our friend Hassan Ali for the extra garden goodies... we can assure you nothing is going to waste (lots of spiciness in the dehydrator 😉 giving the house a distinct aroma)!

I'll post a picture of the finished product as soon as it's bottled.

We've got a rough idea of our last hot sauce of the 2026 season... blood oranges 🍊! More to come...I love the creative license an abundance of garden produce allows.

Just a reminder that we still have all of our herbal remedies in stock. School is back in session and full classrooms act as petri dishes for germs. Fire c***r, mullein extract, and 100% organic teas are available. Feel free to message us any inquiries or requests.

We still have cranberry orange zucchini bread for sale!

Made more than anticipated, so if you're interested, please message me!

It is delicious 😋

Pick up only. I'll be home the rest of the afternoon, and available again tomorrow after 3pm.

Will be placing in the freezer soon!

We have been SO busy today!

Seasoned diced tomatoes canned, pickled jalapeno & serranos canned, cranberry orange & italian cheesy zucchini breads baked...

We still have a few loaves available to those interested!
...and, I'm excited for this one...our hottest hot sauce to date is bottled up! This one is going to knock your socks off. Roasted sweet peaches, peach ghost, sugar rush peach peppers, onion, and garlic blended with honey and bourbon!

Hey folks...we've got zucchini galore...and we've whipped up a TON of cranberry orange bread.

Is anyone keen on snagging a loaf or two so we don’t end up with a freezer stuffed to the brim with just bread? We’ve already got 4 loaves chilling in the freezer if that’s your jam, and we’re baking more today. It’s just $10.00 for a 2lb loaf. Remember, it’s first come, first served for the 10 loaves!

Local pickup only, no delivery, because we’re knee-deep in canning today too... it’s a bustling, packed kitchen!

Things happening on the homestead this week...

School has been back in session, and my youngest is a freshman in high school this year. He's made it to week three and is already sick with his first viral infection. The moment he feels something coming in he heads to treat himself with fire c***r and mullein extract...I don't tell him, he just does it. He reports improvement in symptoms within 30 minutes. Right now, he is dosing at twice daily and has been for two days...less coughing, less nasal congestion and subsequent discharge.

Fire c***r, mullein extract, and mullein tea are all currently in stock.

My hubby canned a beautiful batch of garden fresh tomatoes, and I'm going to be doing a seasoned batch tomorrow. We are also going to be making another hotsauce...a roasted bourbon peach ghost! 😮...and she's gonna be delicious!

We found a couple of purple spore puffballs in the front yard, but given our current location decided best to just watch them grow.

I'm also going to be making snacking "chips" from some of our golden beets...maybe they'll pair well with my tomato "chips"...ohhhh, that's the start of a veggie trail mix! What else do y'all think would work in that??

Update on the baked beans... they were DELICIOUS! Kiddo said, "These are better than any store bought I've ever had!" The secret...no ketchup was used, but homemade tomato juice and tomato powder (from dehydrated skins), I used one pound of peppered bacon for 4 pounds of beans (not drained), 1 large onion, 4-5 cloves of garlic, brown sugar, black strap molasses, and approximately 3 cups of brine leftover from our jalapeno/serrano cowboy candy! This experiment was a complete success. I will definitely be making them again.

And the kitten distribution center is at it again. My youngest daughter rescued a cute lil' furball, lovingly named Tater Tot, just two months after my son found his black one which was named Juno (I call him T-cat). Both kittens are exceptionally happy and being cared for at their dad's home in Weston as we cannot keep them here.

More to come...we'll see how all turns out tomorrow!

Blessed evening all...stay well!

The end of the day, and the tomato skins are drying for powdering and later use.

Peach ghosts are starting to come in - they're pretty but they're going to pack a solid bit of heat! It appears after a few days of rain (finally!!), the garden is getting a second wind - and it looks like the jungle I'm used to seeing! We've still got tomatoes galore, beans are coming again, peppers of all kinds are loading the plants, zucchini, eggplant, squash, and cabbage!

To top off the evening, I did a bit of much needed weeding, and came out with some 100% safe, pesticide free, organic, dandelion roots to dry for tea and salve.

Oh, and my sage plant had gone full-Audrey... if anyone would like some fresh, or dried for tea or cooking, please just let me know!

Have a great evening!
