Care for your growing family
Care for yourself
About Arnica
We all need a safe place. A soft landing; a tight hug at the end of a long day. Arnica is honored to hold space during the magical, vulnerable times when a family is growing. People become parents, children become older siblings. We see you.
Back in 2012, Lauren Hake walked into a midwifery office for the first time and had her heart and mind cracked open. Now she is a licensed midwife, and so grateful to be able to provide midwifery care and birth services to folks in the greater Portland area, as well as plant medicine products to folks all over. This is Arnica Midwifery and Apothecary. Welcome <3
