hey everyone i was wondering if anybody could be of help in a couple of things? The first one is anybody on here from manitoba? I am looking for some pagan supply shops in the area and was wondering if anyone knew of any. All I can find is some new age shops that don't even come close to meeting my needs! No offense to any new-ager who may read this thread. I have to buy my tarot cards from chapters, my herbs the few i can find from Vita health, it's horrible!
the second was does anyone know any good crosscountry, crosscontinent, crosswhatever herb supply stores? I really need to get a hold of some dragon's blood and can't find anywhere, hell even a place i could get a hold of seeds would do if they had to(wouldn't be able to keep them in the window or anything i have cats and small children)
I greatly appreciate anyones help.
Please no online stores unless they send out like a free catologue or something because I do not own a credit card.
Brightest blessings,
Pheonix

www.azuregreen.com has dragonsblood by the pound.
i really don't think you can grow it as it is some sort of tropical palm tree and the resin is what is called dragonsblood.
another site is www. ethenobotany.com they have herbs and things from all over the world just about.
you could also collect some local ones yourself. i know this is not a good time of year but cedar and pine and the like are always around. good luck

Brightest blessing,

I have friends who grow it. :)

Here's a couple of places you can get herbs & plants. Richters is in Ontario & they have a great variety of herb plants. They sell by mail order too. I've ordered lots from them & am quite satisfied. The catalogue is worth having just for the info alone. Good place to find hard-to-find herbs.

Another place to buy dried herbs in bulk is Gaia Gardens here in Vancouver. They do mail order as well too. Very knowledgable people there. And Well Naturally as well. These places are on the internet but I don't have their sites here.

If you're interested in growing your own herbs & such, check out the Green Room. There were lots of good discussions on what herbs to start out with and container growing & etc.
