About Belfire Botanicals — Susan’s Story

Deep in the Appalachian Mountains of Eastern Tennessee, Belfire Botanicals stands as a testament to passion, craftsmanship, and the quiet strength of one woman dedicated to the healing power of plants. Today, the business is guided by Susan — an herbalist whose skill, intuition, and hands-on experience shine through in every tea, tincture, balm, and remedy she creates.

Belfire Botanicals began as a shared dream between Susan and her late husband. Together, they poured themselves into learning, experimenting, and honoring traditional herbal practices. When he passed, Susan didn’t just inherit a business—she inherited the full body of their work: the books, the notes, the formulas, the lessons learned from years of making remedies side by side. What she also carried forward, though she rarely gives herself enough credit, was her own deep well of knowledge. She had been there for every harvest, every formulation, every small-batch creation. She had the hands, the heart, and the experience to continue the craft — and she did.

With quiet determination and remarkable talent, Susan stepped into the role fully. Today she runs Belfire Botanicals with a blend of respect for tradition and her own confident, intuitive approach to herbal wellness. Each product is still made by hand, in small batches, using high-quality, thoughtfully sourced ingredients. Her teas are calming, her tinctures effective, her salves and balms trusted by loyal customers who know her work is honest and carefully crafted.

But what truly sets Belfire Botanicals apart is Susan herself. She isn’t a big brand or a faceless company — she’s a real herbalist, working daily with the tools, journals, and wildcrafted wisdom that shaped the business from the beginning. She listens to her customers, she studies constantly, and she puts intention into every step of the process. Her commitment to natural health is personal, and it shows.

For anyone seeking plant-based remedies made with authenticity and heart, Belfire Botanicals offers a line of products created by someone who genuinely understands their purpose. Susan’s work honors the past while confidently charting her own path forward — and we’re proud to introduce her to our Land Basket Farm family.
