About Us

About Us:
I am a studied herbalist. My interest started in 1980, using herbal teas, looking for a cure for psoriasis, which has afflicted me since I was 18 months old. In 1991, my studies deepened and read everything; I could get my hands on. I began buying natural herb books. Making tinctures, oils and ointments. Through trial and error, I discovered recipes that work for my family and me. The next thing you know friends are asking what herb would help this ailment or that, not knowing all the answers I would study and let them know what I had learned. Then where can you get it? I began packaging and selling. I have gone through the riggers and slings of labeling laws and disclaimers.
In the beginning, I made tinctures using apple cider vinegar, WHOA, wow the taste. I switched to alcohol, but was really against using alcohol, due to my personal belief about alcohol. Then I discovered glycerine, much better, so much more palpable. My first ointments were made using Vaseline, there too I had a problem with putting a gas products on my skin. Through research, I discovered one could use many other oils and waxes in combination, which are skin friendly. Over the years, I have developed many herbal recipes and products.
All-Natural-Herbs Love Deeds by Rhonda TM is a sole proprietor, woman owned and operated, built from scratch business. Business established in 1991, providing for relatives and friends. I started with just making about 10 tinctures for cold and flu season and a couple of creams for cuts and scrapes. I now make over 200 products. My interest became an intense passion. I am interested in overall human health and healing, mental, emotional, physical and spiritual. I needed to get away from chemicals and prescription drugs. Have alternatives that are not just a band-aid covering up a deeper problem.
Products are handcrafted; the only equipment I use is a commercial grinder, herb press, a small capsule maker, dehydrators and mason jars for brewing the brew. Growing to filling the bottle, creating the label, all done by hand.
October 2005 I began building an online business and traveling to Pow wow’s, gatherings and culture events as a vendor.
Credit where credit is due:
My number one business partner is my grandson Dra: who lives with me, born with Clinical Angelman Syndrome. He is a great inspiration and loves going and picking flowers, we hike where he can get around easily.
Moral support from all my family members, my mother Marilyn, Aunt Jo Ann, both of my grown children Dawn and Curtis, numerous close friends, this is invaluable.
Cora Wilson is my right hand bookkeeping, paper-organizing woman. Working part-time helping me keep up on the paper work side of business, she has great advertising ideas. Cora’s help is invaluable, I have no time for paper work with all the things I do, identifying, growing, harvesting, teaching classes and processing is full time. Let alone raise a special needs grandson.
I am very grateful for these people in my life and having interest in alternative healing, helping where I need help. Without this help, I could not do what I have done so far.
Thank you (Wado)
