Essence Botanicals is a Black-owned and operated agricultural business that aims to meet the needs of a diverse Minnesota metro market for premium organic produce, herbs, and more.
Founded by Reithen Curtis in 2020, Essence Botanicals was originally launched using savings and pandemic stimulus funds. Soon after, experience farmer James Matias, and Keillan Curtis joined as partners in the endeavor.
Essence Botanicals is a small farming business dedicated in everything we do to sustainable, ethical, and responsible agriculture. We utilize extensive rainwater catchment systems on our farms, and use planting, harvesting, and maintenance practices and products that ensure everything we grow and produce is not only great for you, but also for the environment.
