Sweetgrass

Sweetgrass is a fragrant grass native to North America, often used in spiritual rituals and ceremonial practices by Indigenous peoples. It has long, soft, green blades with a sweet, vanilla-like aroma. Traditionally, sweetgrass is braided and burned like incense to purify spaces, invite positive energy, and honor connections with the natural world. Beyond its cultural significance, it’s also valued for its aromatic properties in perfumes and natural remedies. Its gentle scent and cultural importance make it treasured both spiritually and practically.
