Values and Purpose

Viridi Boutique exists to provide and popularize the means to holistic self-empowerment in all forms - be they material, aesthetic, or ritual. 

We believe that growth and decay - as conceptual, physical, and metaphysical processes - are deeply interrelated, and scalable to the human condition. 

We believe that the othering of our natural surroundings and the concomitant order has encouraged its short-sighted and inefficient plunder at the hands of humanity. 

With this in mind, Viridi Boutique is, primarily, an apothecary.

Natural medicines and holistic self-care are powerful reminders that progress is not along a single known line or even across a simple plane of options and choices; rather, progress sometimes means acknowledging excess, wastefulness, inefficiency, and undue suffering as reasons enough to scale backward and downward to a previous state, to revisit methods that have already been proven to work and have fewer collateral consequences, even when that means sacrificing profitability and volume. 

We grow our own craft cannabis in organic, living soil indoors under LEDs, and build our own soil and amendments. Our inputs are all either OMRI listed or produced on-site from basic, organically-derived ingredients. We are a licensed Medical Caregiver in the State of Maine, #CGR*******.

We formulate all of our products by hand in small batches, from organic ingredients wherever applicable, and never use fillers, binders, or other purposeless additives. Our foraged or cultivated ingredients are always sustainably and responsibly grown or harvested. Our bath and beauty offerings never use dyes, parabens, or sulfates and all fragrances and essential oils used are organic. Foodstuffs are prepared in our commercially licensed home kitchen [#####here].

When preparing supplements, teas, and other products, Viridi carefully maps out the interactions of the new ingredients with those in existing offerings, so as to synergize the two and optimize the overall lifestyle impact of the line as a whole while avoiding any counterindications. For example, Our Dawn Tea contains gingko biloba, whose compounds may be aided in their delivery to the brain by the vasodilating action of Obelisk, which contains both Citrulline and Pine Bark Extract; Taking Balance with Soothe will increase the likelihood of experiencing benefits like weight loss and wakefulness; Chalice and Dusk Tea's benefits arise from different mechanisms, which can provide extraordinary stress and anxiety relief when combined.  

Delivering directly to our clients' doors is how we typically do business, but we are also able to ship any and all non-cannabis items globally. To avoid wasteful credit card fees and the complicated legal status of our products at a federal level while complying with terms and conditions of sites like this one and card processors themselves, we accept Check, Cash and CashApp payments only for the time being. We like to deliver within a 15 mile radius, but will happily accommodate any order in the state - we pride ourselves on flexibility and dependability. 

All packaging and design work - from every little sticker and label to every word on this site - is created by us, in-house. 

Our cannabis is available at wholesale for interested parties within the Maine Medical Cannabis system. 

 

It is our sincere hope that you find meaning in our purpose, and allow us to empower your lifestyle in our short time together on this, our one and only planet Earth.
