Mangata Apothecary
Mångata Apothecary™ is a one woman show. Stefanie has struggled to fit into the prestigious “natural product” community as she seeks to stay true to the mandate of generosity and minimizing consumption. The products are made in small batches, in a small workshop, with a lot of heart. Many of the herbs are wildcrafted, the ingredients are locally sourced, and the packaging is recyclable. It’s grassroots baby! The real deal. So if thinking about making your own products seems messy, it is, but it’s so worth it, and we are here to guide the way.
Stefanie grew up in Smithers BC, surrounded by nature. As a young girl she was fascinated with adults who had a connection with the land and knew how to use herbs as medicine. In her early 30’s she created Mångata Apothecary™, originally started in her kitchen in attempts to provide healthy options for her family as well as to avoid spending money on unnecessary, wasteful, and toxic products (Stefanie is a thrifter at heart and abnormally frugal!).
Stefanie currently holds degrees in both Intercultural Studies and Midwifery and is pursuing her Masters of Science in Herbal Medicine in order to solidify her herbal passion. In addition, she has spent over 2 years volunteering and providing midwifery care overseas. This education and experience has exposed her to much heartbreak and injustice. Mångata Apothecary™ is meant to not only create a passionate livelihood for her, but to be an outlet of generosity, healing, and resourcefulness.
All products are CertClean certified, meaning they have no nasties or toxic ingredients. We want to be know as a safe and clean brand and are working hard to provide you with that! Look for the stamp on the label and rest easy knowing it is effective and good for you.
In addition- a portion of each purchase goes towards cedarsnetwork.org - a non-profit co-led by a midwife she worked side by side with overseas.
