Urth was founded by a Naturopath with the purpose to inspire change in the way individuals connect with their bodies and nature ~ restoring the fundamental, innate knowing that
we are nature.
Meet Tamsin, the medicine woman of Urth Apothecary.
Kia ora, I’m Tamsin, a herbalist based on a regenerative land project called Mangaroa Farms, in Wellington New Zealand. I’ve always been fascinated and mystified by nature; the magic of her diversity, regenerative capacity, and the profound healing wisdom within her plant realms. This intuitive calling stewarded me along a curious path, leading me to pursue studies in natural medicine (BSc), elemental herbalism, rongoa, somatics, and hours of wildcrafting in the forest & tinkering with plant potions - which has taught me far more about plants than the textbook pages ever could! Working with plants has become my absolute passion. I weave together and work at the intersection of clinical naturopathic medicine, grassroots plant medicine, and intuitive healing. My mission is to provide intentional, small-batch plant medicine from the land, to support humanity’s reconnection to nature & her plant kin, restoring our vision to see the medicine all around us. Thank you for being on this journey with me & trusting me to provide plant medicine into your homes and support you on your health journey.

About Naturopathy
Harnessing the power of plants for medicine is our oldest known system of healing. Hippocrates, the ancient Greek physician and father of medicine, had it right when he said: ‘Nature itself is the best physician’. Naturopathy is an evidence-based, patient-centered, holistic healthcare modality with ancient roots in this philosophy, with many of its teachings originating from indigenous cultures - the first clans who learned the language of nature for survival. Naturopaths utilise a toolbox of individualised nutrition, lifestyle recommendations, functional testing, and plant medicine, to stimulate the body's systems back into balance and vitality in alignment with nature’s design.
