About Vamigas
It Started With Plantitas...
"From herbs to botanicals, to superfrutas like maqui and acai, plants were always a critical part of our ancestor's lives. They have nourished and supported us from the beginning of time. But our cultures - no matter where you come from - have mostly forgotten about this power. We want to take this magical power back.
From gardening to skincare, we believe that braiding plants into our lives help us create a better, more balanced life and can sow a sense of peace and stillness and joy in our day-to-day that absolutely nothing else can compare to."
