A little more about Chris:Hello! My name is Christopher, and I am the warehouse manager here at Uncle Harry's. I joined the team this past November, and couldn't be more excited to be a part of such a wonderful company! Growing up in Colorado cultivated my love for hiking, trail running, backpacking, and paddle boarding. I attended undergrad in Durango, Colorado at Fort Lewis College, graduating with a Bachelors of Arts in Art and Archaeology. While attending classes, I also managed a locally owned garden center. My working knowledge of all things horticultural was never really satisfied. Not only did I want to grow plants, I wanted to learn how to turn natural plant material into beneficial health products. This desire is shared with my fiancé, who is a Naturopathic Doctor. Together we try to harvest, process, and create our own herbal tea and tinctures to the best of our abilities. Enter Uncle Harry's! Working here I have learned vast amounts of information regarding the sourcing, handling, and processing of all the wonderful natural resources available to us here in the great Northwest!

This week we'd like to introduce you to Chanel, our Customer Service Specialist, and her favorite product: Uncle Harry's Aromatherapy Hair Conditioner Spray.
Why is Uncle Harry's Aromatherapy Hair Conditioner Spray your favorite product?My favorite product at Uncle Harry's would have to be Uncle Harry's Aromatherapy Hair Conditioner Spray. Using this spray after I shower and spritzing some after I am done styling, has made my hair shiny, strong, and soft! I am often disappointed by products, as the oils end up weighing the hair down and creating a greasy mess. However, the Aromatherapy Hair Conditioner Spray with its citrus focused essential oils leaves my hair light, manageable and ready for a great hair day! Plus the citrus scent clings to my hair leaving me with the scent of orange blossoms.
What are 3 adjectives/phrases you would use to describe the product?
Enchanting
Gentle
Revitalizing
A little more about Chanel:I live in Seattle and have prospered in life with a loving partner, cat, and tortoise. I love all animals, big and small, and have a background in zoology. It's been wonderful to work with Uncle Harry's where people are creative as well as compassionate towards all animal and plant life. At home, I enjoy painting and help teens with their creative ambitions as well. Some of my favorite things are traveling, playing with my cat, honey in my coffee, and rainy days.

This week we'd like to introduce you to Jamie, our Shipping Manager, and her favorite product: Uncle Harry's Cinnamon Toothpaste.
Why is Uncle Harry' Cinnamon Toothpaste your favorite product?My favorite product is hands down our toothpaste. Specifically the cinnamon flavor. Having been trained as a certified dental assistant, I was very skeptical of what kind of benefit my family’s oral health could get from a natural toothpaste, but after reading the ingredients and seeing the quality of ingredients we use, I was definitely intrigued—all of the minerals in the clay, the antibacterial properties of the oils, the sea salt—all things I knew would be good for us. The first time I used it was a bit rough. I had a hard time with the taste. However, my teeth felt like I had just gone to the dentist for a cleaning! My mouth had never felt so clean and refreshing. After a week or so, the saltiness went away as the ph levels in my mouth balanced. Now nobody in our house will use anything else. We often joke about how being forced to use a more mainstream brand feels as clean as brushing our teeth with a lollipop! I pass it out to everyone these days!
What are 3 adjectives/phrases you would use to describe the product?
Refreshing
Wholesome
Balancing
A little more about Jamie:My name is Jamie and I am the shipping manager for Uncle Harry's. I have been a part of this incredibly diverse little family for about 2 and a half years. I could not love my job more!!! For the the first time, I work for a company that I am proud to be a part of, and whose products I absolutely believe in. I am a very proud mama of 2 remarkable young men, and will marry my love next year. After being a stay at home mom for many years, entering back into the workforce was a little intimidating, but it has been the greatest adventure.

This week we'd like to introduce you to Jordan, one of our Shipping Specialists, and her favorite product: Uncle Harry's Face Wash.
Why is Uncle Harry's Face Wash your favorite product?His whole life, my boyfriend suffered from deep, cystic acne. It was so bad before I found these products that his doctors told him the only way he would ever have clear skin was by going on a powerful chemical drug that alters your body functions and comes with a long list of very serious side effects. He had gone through everything it was possible to try, and this formula is the only product he's ever found that's worked. He uses this along with the Hemp Blemish Salve and the Colloidal Tea Tree Blemish Roll On, and he has clear skin for the first time in his life. He truly couldn't be more thankful or overjoyed! It's changed the way he sees himself in the world. I also started using this product because he loves it so much, though I've never washed my face before, and I honestly love the difference it's made in my skin. My pores are shrinking and it's given me a much fresher, more even complexion!
What adjectives/phrases would you use to describe the product?
Detoxifying
Cleansing
Toning
Refreshing
A little more about Jordan:I've worked for Uncle Harry's for 2 years now and I couldn't believe more in the work we do or the healing power of natural products! Time and time again, I've seen our products do things that I've grown up hearing doctors, dentists, and other medical professionals claim impossible. It really inspires me to think outside the box of what I've considered achievable for health and wellness, and only further fuels my passion for learning. Understanding how powerful nature is by itself, without all the harmful chemicals and additives put into everything today from our food to our health and hygiene products, has changed my life in the biggest way imaginable. I went from struggling with a load of health problems, having trouble functioning in my day to day life, to never having to worry I might have a day where I can't get out of bed again. I hope to eventually be able to spread all my knowledge to help people realize that there's a whole world beyond Western medicine one that we've been taught. I like to spend my free time expanding my mind in every way, researching and learning as much as possible, exploring new organic restaurants, enjoying nature, and creating everything that I can. I'm incredibly excited to be on this journey of life and for every day that I get to grow further and learn how to keep improving it! One day, I hope to go back to school to study quantum physics. But more than anything, I just want to make a positive impact in the world, the environment, and the lives of everyone around me!

A little more about Ambika:Hi UH fans! I'm a firm believer in healing properties of plants and environmental rights. I'm interested in living plastic-free, eating raw vegan food, preparing my own kombucha and nut milks, and skateboarding. I've played drums in punk bands for many years, and have always participated in the DIY music community. To me, the body is meant to heal itself, and also has the desire to do so! When Uncle Harry is actually your dad, you learn that Mother Earth provides the necessary tools to help aid the healing process. You better believe I practice what I preach!

This week we'd like to introduce you to Allia, our Production Manager, and her favorite product: Uncle Harry's Hair & Scalp Elixir.
Why is Uncle Harry's Hair & Scalp Elixir your favorite product?Uncle Harry's Hair and Scalp Elixir is one of my favorite because it has transformed my hair back into original curly, bouncy, and overall healthy state. I had used a hair straightener for many years on my hair. It damaged my curls to the point they were loose curls not tight ringlets, after applying this every morning directly to my scalp, after about 3 months I saw the difference it was doing to my hair. Love, Love, Love it has brought back my curls!!!! WOOHOO
What are 3 adjectives/phrases you would use to describe the product?
Transforming
Confidence boosting
Overall an awesome easy way to make your hair naturally beautiful again =)
A little more about Allia:I am 22 and grew up in the greater Seattle area, with my two sisters, more than a few pets, and our parents. They instilled in us, at an early age, the desire to go out in the world and do whatever it was that inspired us. I grew up sailing through the straights and around the San Juans, skiing the passes of Snoqualmie, and getting to know friends and family. Nowadays, I find myself either cooking yummy food, reading, writing, doodling, crafting, or anything I feel up to in the moment. I am passionate about rockhounding, and Washington has a beautiful spectrum of rocks and minerals! I have found an abundance of trails and river beds with everything from clear quartz, garnet and even blue lace agate! I am very compassionate and have a strong belief in human rights and equality for ALL. I spent some time at Standing Rock working closely with the Sioux Tribe and other water protection efforts. In addition, I STAND with Women's Rights and the Black Lives Matter movements! I am a food lover. Some of my favorite restaurants are No Bones, Sunlight Café, and Cookie Counter. They are all vegan, sustainable, and local restaurants around Seattle that all have the most killer menus! Creativity is something I have fostered in myself since I was little. I love thinking outside the box! Overall, I am happy with what I do, and why I do it!
