Garden of Eden

Amazing handmade beauty products. Your face will thank you!

If you are into plant medicine, this is a good place to visit. Eden (the proprietress) is very knowledgable and kind. She has helped me so much with figuring out how to make my own concoctions that I can’t even begin to express my gratitude. I had an awful bout of Poison Oak this spring, and she (along with some helpful plants) got me through it without too much discomfort.

nb: The shop is not directly on Third St. It’s near the back door of Tomales Bay Foods /​Cowgirl Creamery, opening off a pedestrian walkway that connects 3^rd and 4^th Sts.
The prices for bulk herbs here are competitive with, sometimes better than, huge Rainbow Grocery Coop in SF. Only caution is that if Eden herself isn’t sitting the shop on a particular day, you don’t receive her level of expert consultation. That’s of course inevitable with a tiny shop, so no reason for complaint.

Very knowledgeable and friendly. When I want to know something about herbs I will ask Eden. She has so much love in her heart. Just walking in here is healing.
Eden has lots of fun things in her shop. The world is a better place for haivng Eden and her shop. Support it and buy something here!

I had the good fortune to take a class of Eden’s at an herbal symposium last year, and I finally got around to visiting her lovely store last month. It is an amazing place where you can find any kind of tincture or herb or tea. What is more special is her attention and kind advice to whatever ails you. I highly recommend visiting her the next time you are in Point Reyes Station, not only does she have the herbs, but many little gifty things too. She also has some potted herbs for sale, right from her backyard!

This is a fun little herbal shop in Point Reyes Station. The selection of herbals and botanicals is incredible with a ridiculous number of herbal teas and extracts and every kind of organic, homeopathic cure for what ails you. Being totally clueless to what helps what, the owner Eden is incredibly knowledgeable, helpful, and very patient in answering any questions you may have. They’ve also got some nifty little stuffed animals and books about herbs too, so you can learn yourself all about herbs.
Now, I’m not a huge herbalist, but my date is and was digging the whole experience. Right after we left the store, Eden chased after us because we forgot to buy the tea bags for the herbal tea, she made an extra $ 3, I was out another $ 3, and my date was happy. One could call that some superior customer service right there.
