I got very good advice about products I am currently taking, as well as ideas for replacement products that were more reasonable.
you had the products I wanted at reasonable prices and the ordering process was easy and helpful
I’ve been mixing the calendula oil with my regular body lotion, and my skin is ecstatically happy. And I smell great as well. Will purchase again.
I take them at night and they do not upset my stomach!
I visited Brian at Village Green in person in July 2026. He was a wealth of information.
My knee feels so much better, and with just enough pressure to hold it together without feeling constricted. Definitely use the size guide - I would never guess I was an XL, but it fits perfectly.
Employees are very knowledgeable and always willing to help.

I've been coming to the Apothecary for years for supplements that I read about and seek their advice on efficacy and best form of ingestion to get the True Value of some of the nutrients and minerals we may be lacking. The staff is always friendly and knowledgeable and explain the differences between Brands and formulations of supplements that, to an uninformed person, would look to be identical. I count on their advice and appreciate their expertise.
Trying It For the First Time It Work's Great So I Gave Some To My Neighbor And She Loves It So I Told Her Where She Can Buy It. I Ordered Another Bottle Of The Peppermint But You Don't Have It In Stock. LOVE IT.
