ABOUT ME
Three problems. Three remedies. One very personal beginning.
I didn't set out to become an herbalist. I was simply looking for natural, safe solutions to my own everyday problems.
Anxiety. Stomach aches. Trouble focusing.
Nature happened to be the answer. So, I made teas and tinctures for myself. Then I made some for family and friends. Eventually, people I'd never met started asking for help, too.
12 years later, I'm still making the remedies that started it all.
Hi, I'm Ashley.
I'm the woman behind Binford's All Naturals—and if you came into my kitchen, I'd probably ask you the same thing I ask people at markets:
“So, what's going on? What do you need help with?”
Because that's really how all of this started.
I wasn't trying to become an herbalist. I wasn't setting out to build an apothecary or create dozens of products.
I was simply looking for safe, natural solutions to problems I was dealing with myself.
Anxiety.
Stomach aches.
Trouble focusing.
I started learning about simple, everyday herbs and experimenting with combinations in my own kitchen. Nothing exotic. Nothing mysterious. Mostly dried flowers, herbs and spices that people have used for generations.
I made what I needed.
And when something worked well for me, I made extra and shared it.
First with family.
Then friends.
Then friends of friends.
Eventually people started asking me to make something for their problems.
And somewhere along the way, what began as a few homemade remedies in my kitchen became Binford's All Naturals.
More Than a Decade Later...
I've now been making Binford's remedies for over a decade.
Over the years, that little collection of products grew into more than 50 different options for everyday wellness.
But the philosophy behind them hasn't really changed.
Keep it simple.
I work primarily with familiar dried herbs, flowers and spices. I make small batches. I use an alcohol-free glycerin base for my tinctures. And I don't believe wellness has to be complicated, intimidating, or reserved for people who know everything there is to know about plants.
Because I certainly don't.
I'm not interested in pretending to be the woman who knows every plant in the forest by its Latin name.
I'm the woman who learned what helped me, kept learning, kept making, listened to the people around me—and shared what I found useful.
And I'm completely comfortable with that.
Made by a Real Person
Binford's isn't a giant wellness company pretending to be handmade.
It really is handmade.
I still blend, mix, strain, bottle, label, pack and ship my products myself, just as I did when I started.
I still make small batches.
I still care where my ingredients come from.
And behind every order is still the same person who started making remedies in her kitchen because she needed them herself.
There's no enormous laboratory or complicated manufacturing story hiding behind the pretty bottles.
Mostly, there's me, some really good plants, and a kitchen.
And I actually love that.
Simple Remedies for Real Life
I've lived enough life to know that wellness rarely looks perfect.
Sometimes you're anxious.
Sometimes your stomach hurts.
Sometimes your brain refuses to cooperate.
Sometimes everything feels off at the same damn time.
That's real life.
And Binford's exists to offer simple herbal support for some of those everyday moments.
Not miracle cures.
Not complicated protocols.
Not promises that one little bottle is going to fix your entire life.
Just thoughtfully made remedies created from familiar plants that have been part of my own life for years.
Simple remedies. Real life.
That's Binford's.
And if you're standing here wondering where to begin...
Tell me what's going on.
We'll start there.
