Title: Owner
Company: Simply Herbal, NC
Location: Peachland, N.C.
Ms. Turner has been mixing and selling herbs for more than 10 years, but has 29 years of experience in herbal medicine and consultations. About a year ago, she opened a store front in North Carolina called Simply Herbal, NC, conducting herbal consultations and helping customers find the right herb for illness or issue. Ms. Turner also has a whole foods grocery store where she sells a wide variety of gluten-free and whole foods; her products can be purchased on her website, as well. She attributes her success to passion for herbs, the pregnant mothers that come into the store, stubbornness and her ability to see things through.
Initially, Ms. Turner became involved in her profession through her family history, which got her involved in natural herbs. Her great-grandfather was a Native American medicine man that used natural forms of medicine. Also, when dealing with pregnant women in her classes, she found they were looking for natural herbs that can be taken while pregnant. In five years, Ms. Turner would like to be in a larger store that has more manufacturing space for her to make her herbs. She would also like to be a speaker and go out and share her knowledge.
