There's a much loved natural health brand that's making a gentle return to the scene, and we couldn't be more excited to showcase their incredible offerings…
Orchard St, founded by Naturopath Kirsten Shanks in 2012, has made huge impact in Sydney's plant based eating and herbal medicine scene for over a decade. After closing the doors of her four iconic Sydney stores (Bronte, Paddington, Manly, and Bondi) in mid 2024, Orchard St has entered a period of gentle transformation now bringing its Naturopathic inspired products directly to you, which we proudly stock in our store.
The Vision Behind Orchard St
Kirsten Shanks is known for her gentle nature paired with an adventurous spirit. She’s a qualified Naturopath who was inspired to create Orchard St. (named after Manhattan's lower east side) following a trip to New York where she originally witnessed the beginnings of the cold-press juice and raw food movement flourishing. Recognising a gap in the Australian market, she launched a holistic juice and Naturopath brand focused on the remedial potential of plant medicines in an accessible way.
The essence of Orchard St. lies in its guiding philosophy of "botanical connection", that aims to cultivate reverence for the natural world while inspiring mindful, intentional choices and ritual. Since its inception, its nurtured more than just exceptional products; its created a thriving, connected community united by a shared passion for plant wisdom and holistic health.
