for our line of herbal candies flowed to us from the ancient Egyptians and their belief in the principle of ma’at—order, harmony, balance.

In ancient Egypt, the concept of ma’at was made manifest in the secure, cyclical nature of the environment. Unlike its neighbors in Asia and the rest of Africa, Egypt did not depend on rain. The Nile rose with remarkable certainty, inundating the land and allowing for cultivation and abundant gardens.

The gardens of the ancient Egyptians were cool, shady havens of order. Symmetrical, precisely planned, filled with fragrant flowering bushes, trees and herbs, gardens celebrated the harmonious lives of the Egyptians. At the heart of each garden was a pool of  still water. As the Nile continually refreshed and sustained the kingdom, so did the garden nourish the family and the home.

We hope our NILE GARDENS herbal candies refresh , sustain, and center you as you pursue the principle of ma’at in your snacking lives…
