​The Big Ideas

Meraki: Greek, noun:
the soul, love, creativity and passion one puts into their work.
Farmacy: American English, noun and adverb.
The best kind of place.
Where the practices of sowing seeds sparks the arts of creating spaces for thriving biodiversity.
The preparing, preserving, compounding and dispensing of plant medicine that honor natural rhythms and interdependent relationships.
The honoring of your sacred bodies: physical, mental, emotional and energetic.
The learning from and caring for our friends, allies and teachers in nature.
The reminders of how powerful you are, how our communities, families, you and your body deserve only health and nourishment.
Finding the ways back home to remembering these natural laws and being able to respond to a rapidly shifting world.

Meraki Farmacy was birthed in Guilford, VT in 2015 by Lucia Hawkins, a humxn of many trades. They are exploring and practicing ways of harm reduction in the pursuit of more moments of wholeness for people, plants, places and communities. A biologist, educator, storyteller, relentless seeker and restless maker, Lu offers Meraki as both love letter and call for resistance and protest. Lucia continues their education, with a deep interest in trauma recovery & bringing trauma informed practices to all aspects of society.
Weaving together lessons from Mother and the non-humxn kin-dom, cosmic natural law, direct experiences, stories shared in community, the power of personal choice and the potent love and medicine from plants, Meraki and Lucia strive to be a softer space to land when the going gets extra tough.




​Thank you for growing with the Farmacy and the plants.

It’s more than just soap.
