About US
Welcome to the enchanting world of Meadowsweet Farmhouse. We invite you to discover living with slow exploration, to smell the rose and wear the dress.
We are forever inspired by herbs and flowers, the changing seasons, timeless style and nostalgic hopes.
We ardently wish for you to be inspired in turn by times past, by subtle precious details on clothing that sing to your heart and by scented goods and homewares that create a space for you to rest in.
Why Meadowsweet?
Meadowsweet is a herb that was used originally as a strewing herb which means it was one of the original herbs strewn on the floor to make homes smell good, to make them and the people living within, feel good.
Every foot step crushing the meadowsweet petals strewn on the floors of cottages, castles, manors or huts, would release a cloud of scent into the air. It was even said to be the favourite of Queen Elizabeth I.
It was also loved choice for brides to hold as their wedding day posies and grew in abundance in meadows by creeksides.
It’s stories like these that enchant us and make us feel connected to the past. Much may have changed in the world, but the same meadowsweet flower you gaze upon and smell is the same one countless people for thousands of years have done so with as well.
