Brigid & Bri Botanicals and Bee-Wares

Brigid & Bri Botanicals and Bee-Wares offers small-batch herbal goods and beeswax-based wares, available through local markets and direct sales.

It grew out of my long-standing love of working with plants beyond the field and forest. I forage, grow, and study herbs, and I also enjoy turning those plants into useful, well-made goods, an extension of the same hands-on relationship with the land.

Who are Brigid and Bri?

Bri

I’m Bri, the human part of Brigid & Bri. I’m technically Sabrina, but since I was 12 years old, I’ve wanted Bri to be my nickname. The only person who ever honored that was my dad. I lost him in 2022, and after roughly 35 years of only him saying it, it honestly would feel so weird for anyone else to call me Bri now. But, it feels perfect for my herbal work.

Brigid

The name Brigid refers to a Celtic goddess and also a one-time Catholic saint. Both versions of Brigid (or are they the same?) were known for their compassion for people, healing work, poetry, charity, harvest, fire, and connection with animals and nature.

Those traditions continue in the work I do here. This is where the plants I work with become small-batch herbal goods and beeswax-based wares, made with care and intention.

Brigid & Bri Botanicals and Bee-Wares is part of my broader work under The Fumbling Forager, where I share education on plants, foraging, and thoughtful connection to the natural world.

The term Bee-Wares is because I have a love of puns and wordplay. I was planning for my first booth and was worried about people who are allergic to beeswax. I wondered if I should put up a sign that said “Beware, bee products.” And that easily led me to “Bee-Wares”.

Current offerings include:

• Herbal salves and balms
• Botanical lotion melts
• Beeswax-based household goods (food wraps)
• Seasonal and limited-run herbal items
• Custom tea blends

Ingredients are chosen with care, with an emphasis on plants I forage or grow myself whenever possible, along with responsibly sourced oils, waxes, and other materials. Products are made in small batches, allowing close attention to quality and consistency. All my beeswax comes from North Dakota.

Available at select local markets and events in Minnesota and North Dakota.
