North Shore Apothecary
North Shore Apothecary + Goods is an artisanal, ethically wild-crafted brand run by Emily Lou (she/her), lovingly referred to as "Lou." From their charming, newly-renovated 70-year-old cabin nestled in the traditional lands of the Anishinabek Territory in what is now known as Georgian Bay - Parry Sound - Muskoka area. Lou personally handles every step—from harvesting abundant and invasive regional plants to distilling them with both traditional copper alembic and modern stainless-steel stills
Their philosophy? Sustainability, care, and respect—for the land, the plants, and the generations of Indigenous wisdom rooted in Anishinabek territory
This ethos shines through in their handcrafted offerings—wild botanical hydrosols, essential oils, body sprays, lip balms, healing salves like Backcountry Butter, Sweet Salvation, Cocoa + Wintergreen Lip Butter, and aromatic roll-ons—all designed to reconnect the senses to the accuracy and serenity of the Canadian woods
