Mothertree is an extension of my deep connection with the natural world—a healing practice rooted in the timeless wisdom carried by the plants around us.

Kia ora, I’m Mia—Mother, Herbalist, Artist, and the Visionary Founder of Mothertree. I live by the mantra “Let Nature Lead You”, a guiding principle that has become the heart of Mothertree. It is a reminder to trust the wisdom of the natural world, to listen deeply to its rhythms, and to follow its gentle guidance in all that we do. This philosophy shapes how I create, how I connect with the plants, and how I invite others to reconnect with their true essence. In embracing nature’s wisdom, we find clarity, healing, and a deeper sense of belonging. My work is crafted with love and purpose, grounded in the land I walk, here in Aotearoa, New Zealand. I offer reverence to tangata whenua, honouring the original kaitiaki and custodians of these lands.

When I craft, I listen deeply, drawing inspiration from the wild landscapes and the ancestral knowledge passed down through my lineage as a folk herbalist. Authenticity, transparency, simplicity and care are core foundations of everything I create. With each new product, you can trust that it is crafted with the highest love and intention for the art of herbalism, our plant kin, and for you—the receiver.

As a mother, I understand the importance of simplicity and authenticity in all things that enter our lives. I see my products as offerings of purity, beauty, and practicality, intended to nourish not only your skin but your soul. At heart, I am a mystic, deeply believing in the plants’ power to reconnect us to our true essence, the natural world around us and the people that we love.

Mothertree is more than just skincare; it is a celebration, an invitation, and a remembering. To me, it is simple, I see myself as a voice for the plants, that speak the language of energy. Through my work, I want to revive this way of relating to the land and connecting to place. My wish is that my creations nurture not only your skin but your spirit, reminding you that you are not separate from nature—you are a part of it.

From my heart to yours,
Ngā mihi nui for walking the plant path with me.
Welcome to Mothertree.
