On Country
What a Small Batch Really Means
Julie Kija Williams3 min read

When I say my products are made in small batches, I’m talking about much more than the number of jars or bottles I make.
Every remedy begins long before I step into my workshop. It begins with time on Country. In fact, it’s the part of the journey I love the most.
Some days I’m walking, observing the seasons, or waiting until a plant is ready to be harvested. I take only what I need and follow the old teachings my grandmother shared with me—to ask permission before gathering and to give thanks for the gifts each plant shares.
Back in my workspace, the plants are slowly infused into oils, then blended by hand into small batches of botanical remedies. There are no large machines or production lines—just time, patience, presence, and care.
Working this way allows me to stay connected to every step of the process. It means I can honour the plants, respect my ancestral Country, and create each remedy with the same intention I learnt from my Elders.
For me, small batch isn’t about making less.
It’s about making with presence.
Walk gently. — Kija
