PSA: FYI: We receive herbs by Indigenous tribes in Mexico (you can get Palo Santo from Peru, Ecuador, Venezuela and the Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico) through family that resides in California. The Almighty Pineapple LLC does pay the Indigenous tribes directly and understands the issues at hand in regards to Cultural Appropriation and several discussions of extinction. Since this is a huge issue this is why we deal with the tribe directly, no third party wholesalers or retailers. The tribe harvests Palo Santo with ceremony, they don’t just chop the tree, and in order to receive the blessings of Palo Santo you must sacrifice and give in return. As an Ancestral and Ritual Practitioner, Vida considers this sacred medicine and not to be taken lightly. Due to her beliefs and indigenous (Taino) lineage through her bloodline in Cuba, Vida was blessed and honored to find out that the tribe does bless Palo Santo for The Almighty Pineapple LLC at Vida’s request and sends them directly to Vida. This is not the common transaction and when it is received at The Almighty Pineapple LLC headquarters, Vida also provides ceremony to Palo Santo as a thank you to Gaia (Mother Earth) and in reverence to these Indigenous Tribes. If you know Vida, she honors the indigenous ways and respects all tribes worldwide and stands with the first people. If any way this offends the first people, Vida would and will remove all Palo Santo without hesitation.
When you receive your Palo Santo (ours comes from Peru not Ecuador which is endangered at this time) please pray over it, give an offering to Gaia (Mother Earth) and in reverence to the Indigenous tribes who harvested through tradition and ceremony. This is suggested at this time it is a REQUIREMENT. The medicine of this tree will not work for you if you choose to not follow these instructions. This is how Vida and The Almighty Pineapple LLC Family works with all plant medicines at this time.
Thank you.

It is actual Palo Santo from Peru. From one of the oldest and most revered tools for spiritual cleansing is actually quite humble: Palo Santo. Spanish for "holy wood," Palo Santo is simply wood from the Bursera graveolens tree. Burning it is believed to cleanse a person's energy field (the area around a person that absorbs and deflects outside emotions and energetic influences) and heal physical ailments.
