Sweetgrass Braids
Hierochlöe odorata
Beautiful sweetgrass braids from Canada. These are collected by First Nations families for us each year ("First Nations" is the Canadian equivalent of "Native American"). Sweetgrass is considered sacred by many peoples of North America. The smoke of burning sweetgrass is said to purify and clear objects, places, and people. Often found in medicine bundles and sometimes packed with dance clothes to keep them fresh. For 2024-2025, we have the following grades - Regular grade - Averaging 20-28"
- Select Grade - Averaging 24-30" and thicker than the regular. Finely made and best for presentation/gifting.
- Select Grade XL - Braids over 30"
As all of our braids are hand-picked and braided, there is always variation.
