This week we are featuring Magpie Potions of Story, Wyoming<\/h1>\n

Magpie Potions — Courtney Caplan \u00a0PO Box 124 \u00a0<\/span>Story, WY 82842 \u00a0<\/span>307-683-2181 \u00a0<\/span>pots@vcn.com<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0www.magpiepotions.com<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Courtney has been a potter for years, living, working, and playing in the shadow of the Big Horn Mountains, making her home and pottery studio in Story, Wyoming.\u00a0 She also gardens and grows herbs. Long ago Courtney recognized the nutritional and natural healing properties of many common garden plants as well as local native plants such as cottonwood and wild roses. She began experimenting with native plants for various personal uses, from culinary to medicinal.
\n\"\"<\/a>
\nWhile recognizing the medicinal properties of Cottonwood (Populus angustifolia), Courtney developed a salve to sooth her own aching hands after long hours in her pottery studio. Like many of the products described in this website, the primary component was available right outside her cabin door, along Piney Creek, or on the nearby prairie hills and mountain slopes.<\/p>\n

Magpie Potions\u2019 Cottonwood Salve was a success. Research into plant taxonomy and medicinal values continued, and her product line grew and diversified. In this small community, residents often trade or gift neighbors with all sorts of homegrown goods, foods or music, recognizing \u201chappiness is homemade.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Courtney\u2019s \u201cpotions\u201d proved effective, their local popularity grew, and the Magpie took flight! In 2005, she decided to market Magpie Potions commercially.\u00a0 Magpie Potions scents are musky, woodsy, spicy earth scents that appeal to both men and women.<\/p>\n

Still kitchen-made by hand with 100% natural ingredients and do not contact petroleum or synthetic products of any kind. Magpie Potions products are made in small batches, and are topped with love and care for her friends and neighbors, and her customers.<\/p>\n

Magpie Potions products can be purchased direct by phone or email, online at www.magpiepotions.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n
