Teapotheca is a searchable herbal reference library — a living, well-sourced database of herb profiles, recipes, and growing guides, organized the way a real herbarium catalogs its collection. Every entry includes verified botanical names, traditional and researched uses, and clearly flagged safety information, so users can explore herbal wellness without guessing at the details.
Who it's for
Herbalists, herbal enthusiasts, and the health-curious who want a trustworthy, detail-rich reference rather than another wellness-trend content site — people who care as much about why an herb works (and when it shouldn't be used) as they do about the recipe itself.
Free tier gives access to a 25-herb starter library and 5 recipes; the paid Herbarium tier unlocks the full collection plus all member tools.
