In 1983, she renovated her barn and opened The Mustard Seed Workshop offering dried herbs, spices, potpourri, and crafts.

Salandrea loves working in her gardens and wildcrafts many of the herbs used in her substantial and creative line of natural body care products. She is an adventurous soul who loves to travel inwardly and outwardly. She lives with her mate Bob, and 4 rambunctious cats.

Ainslee Farrington
Bowenwork Practitioner
Ainslee Farrington, a summer native of Bow Lake, became a resident of Strafford County in 2005.
The lake and loons drew her back where she discovered Bowenwork and its effective method of accelerating the body's healing response. This "homeopathy of bodywork" extended naturally from her caring of people throughout her career as a chef and teacher.
Clients' testimonials are a constant reminder of the body's innate ability to get to a better place and of Tom Bowen's gift to the world.
