About Traditional Medicinals

Making Herbal Remedies For You Since 1974

Dear Friends,

Thirty years ago in early 1974, three young friends started Traditional Medicinals® in the back store room of a small herb shop along the Russian River in Northern California. The company was founded with the intention of providing healing remedies, while preserving the knowledge and herbal formulas of Traditional Herbal Medicine (THM). At the time, traditional herbal tea infusions, likely the earliest form of medicine, had all but faded away here in this country. And never before had these safe and effective medicines been available in convenient tea bags.

Over the decades that followed, the company introduced millions of health conscious consumers to traditional herbal tea formulas and the concepts of THM. These effective natural medicines were well received and Traditional Medicinals has grown dramatically.

Well over a billion cups of tea have been produced at our beautiful country facility and some products like Smooth Move®, Throat Coat® and Organic Echinacea Plus® have become mainstream and can be found right here in our online store or in supermarkets and drug stores throughout North America.

From our simple beginnings we have been able to share the wonder of medicinal herbs and pass along the knowledge contained in the great systems of Traditional Herbal Medicine. To this we have added clinical testing and scientific understanding, as well as sophisticated processes to ensure you a good tasting, effective cup of tea. So, while our business has grown and evolved, we remain rooted in the serious and spirited commitment with which we began over thirty years ago.

Thank you for taking the time to learn about us.
