'Ohana Green Witches

About Us

A Green Witch respects and understands the earth and all it encompasses, their love for plants is limitless and at the core of any Green Witch you will find a green heart. Focusing on a love for life whilst, of course, honoring the divine Mother Earth.

​

Green Witches are the healers, the nurturers, and the givers of life on this planet. We are the protectors of nature with a strong emphasis on environmental consciousness and conservation. We believe the earth should be nourished not stripped. When we work with the Earth instead of constantly fighting against it, magical things happen.​

‘Ohana Green Witches is a family-based business of three earth-loving sisters with this same Green Witch passion. Transformed by the healing energies of plants through their own self-healing journeys and seeking answers to their own illnesses that the teachings of sacred plant medicine transformed them and inspired their passion for herbalism and holistic healing.

​

Inspired by the herbal teachings they had received, they grew deep roots that would thrive into a beautiful tree of healing for all, to help conserve the earth and educate others on the medicinal powers of our plant allies. Being able to learn, understand, and feel the benefits of the herbs and how they help assist in healing our body, mind, and spirit is a truly remarkable gift that mother earth provides us in true abundance and we wish to share that message with the world.

‘Ohana Green Witches’ remedies are based on wise wo/men traditions and sacred plant medicine practices that pays homage to the Green witch healers and ancestors before us, while honoring and respecting the land, and plant spirits that the medicine is made of. We specialize in formulating a variety of herbal products with an emphasis on local tropical medicinal plants. Our herbs are harvested from local and mainland organic farms to ensure that our products contain the purest ingredients possible. Each product is formulated with Love and Aloha for our 'Aina', harvested and hand-crafted with the lunar cycles and healing energy of the moon and crystals, so you receive the highest vibration of healing energy possible.

​

Growing up as big lovers of nature, our parents always took us places we could be in nature, whether it was camping, hiking, fishing, sailing, or swimming we were always connected to Mother Earth. Our parents taught us to be curious, observe, touch, feel, and listen to mother earth and all the life around us. These are the beliefs that we at ‘Ohana Green Witches have for promoting health and conserving nature. To teach the community and future generations to get lost in her wonder, feel the sand/earth between your toes, smell the plumeria's and pine trees around us, know the connectedness, and immerse yourself with the spirit of the 'Aina'. Allow her to provide all that you need, let her teach, heal you, and guide you on this beautiful path called LIFE!
