Feeling Better with Plants
With House of Hens and Grit Founder, Adrianne Hunt
These days, more and more people are beginning to ask important questions:
• Are the side effects of some prescription medications worth the trade-offs?
• Is the medication I’m taking really the best solution for my situation?
• Are there things I can do myself to restore my health and help keep my family well without prescriptions?
• Are the choices I’m making today the best ones for my children tomorrow?
People are searching for better options.
When it comes to learning how to care for ourselves and support our health naturally, it can sometimes feel as though this knowledge has been pushed to the sidelines. The conversations we hear in mainstream media often seem incomplete, leaving little room for the long history and practical wisdom of traditional plant medicine.
Some would have us believe that plants are weak or ineffective. My experience has shown me otherwise.
The teachers and mentors I’ve had the privilege to learn from introduced me to ways of working with herbs that few people ever encounter. As I continued down this path, I realized that studying herbalism wasn’t just learning about plants—it was also about reconnecting with a part of my heritage that I had forgotten and honoring traditions that have been passed down through generations.
Through studying and practicing herbalism in my everyday life, I’ve experienced meaningful benefits for both myself and my family. As I began sharing herbal extracts with others, people came back asking for more and sharing stories of how the plants had supported them in their own wellness journeys.
Today, that passion has grown into our family business, the House of Hens and Grit.
My mission is simple: to help people rediscover the remarkable potential of herbal plant supplements while sharing the techniques, traditions, and perspectives I’ve learned through years of apprenticeship, farming, and hands-on experience.
Whether you’ve been following along on Instagram or you’re visiting my website for the very first time, I’m grateful you’re here. I invite you to explore what I have to offer and join me in learning more about the incredible world of herbs.

Why We’re Different
How We Make Our Simple Fresh Plant Extracts
What sets us apart from other herbal makers is our commitment to using freshly harvested plants that grow abundantly in our region. Not only do we use fresh plant material only, but our extracts steep for at least eight weeks. This is small batch herbal extracts at its best. It’s slow, it’s honest. Most of the medicinal plants we use in our extracts were started from seed by my own hands. I tend these plants everyday, and my relationship to them is carried into each part of the herbal extract making process and into the homes of the wonderful people who use our products.
What People Are Saying
I’m still learning things when it comes to natural stuff and I’ve made lots of big mistakes. I’ve taken other products that have made me feel horrible. I feel like I can’t make a mistake with Hens and Grit. I know Adrianne’s products and I love how my body responds to them.
I love how Adrianne is very transparent about her products. You can tell it comes from her heart. That’s her life. It’s not a business to her, even though it is. It’s her lifestyle. it’s what she breathes and lives everyday.
My boys chose this year to get the flu (a couple of times, strep throat too) and man it was crazy. So I started taking Adrianne’s Elder Berry Extract. I couldn’t get the boys to take it, but I love it for me since I can’t get sick and be down and out. I started taking it as soon as cold or flu like symptoms started—and it was great. I didn’t get sick. My husband was a baby and didn’t take it and he got sick.
Our Commitment
We’re committed to our small-batch, handmade process using only the highest quality, fresh herbs.
…which is why our garden gets bigger and bigger each year.
About Adrianne
If ever anyone would ask me how I became an expert on feeling better naturally, my answer quite likely would be this: you never stop learning, and you never stop focusing on people who know more than you do, so you never even think about calling yourself an expert.
“Just message Adrianne, she can help you."
Growing up, I had a little bit of the natural remedy approach, but when I met Adrianne, this whole new world opened up. Now, I use her products for everything. And, I’m even reading ingredients more with everything I use, especially with things I put on my body. I don’t want to put just any stuff on me.
I’m a lazy person, so I love that Adrianne does the research and shares all the info for me on Instagram. I can message her anytime I have a question (what’s good for this?) and she’s so easy to talk with, not judgmental at all. I’ve never even had any side effects to anything. Neither do my boys. So, just message Adrianne, she can help you. She’s an encyclopedia of plant knowledge (and she’s got the most beautiful children, too!).”

“My baby had a bite on her face, and she was having a bad reaction to it. I tried lavender essential oil and that made it worse, but then I remembered I had Adrianne’s woundwort roll on in the cabinet, which was so easy to put on her. Effective, yet gentle. And, my baby just laid back and let me roll it all over her bites. Baby spa moment! She usually would never let me do something like that, but she loved the roll-on.
Between that and Adrianne’s comfrey salve, the swelling and redness went away overnight. And I didn’t even have to go get Benadryl from the store.
As a parent I really appreciate the way Adrianne makes medicines that are specifically safe for children, but then she also has something for everyone.”
