Important COVID-19 Notice
1/31/21: YES, we are barely OPEN, with new UV-C germ-killing air filters in all our rooms, ... BUT,
We have a limited ability to ship orders quickly due to COVID-19 issues that impact labor safety and availability.
Please allow at least 2-3 weeks for your order to ship!
We are a small, family-run business. We are not a giant monopoly like Amazon. Our workers matter.
Be patient, or, do not order right now! Each email asking for updates slows down packing your order.
~ We have temporarily stopped answering our phones to concentrate only upon shipping out backed-up orders. ~
NO phone orders now; NO international orders at this time.
We cannot return any phone messages right now or answer non-order related questions!
We are still answering emails once a day. EMAIL us with your order number if you have an order question.
We thank you for your patience. We are all in this together. Be KIND to your fellow Americans.

3-30-20: COVID-19 Public Health NOTICE:
The deadly Corona (or MAGA) Virus is AIRBORNE!
COVID-19 floats in the air like pollen or dust on microscopic water molecules and is inhaled into our lungs.
It can float alive infecting indoor air for up to three hours or more if not filtered with UV light.
so... All Americans Please wear a MASK when in public!
This is a simple health mandate, like seat belts, and bare feet in restaurants, and TSA airplane screening;
it is not a political statement of health stupidity. Should I have the "Freedom" to bring a gun on a plane with you?
Only if 70% of us take the vaccine can we get to real herd immunity. Just get the vaccine. I did.
See our Corona Virus page for more important health information.

- Asian countries who mandated masks and gave up personal freedoms kept their schools and businesses OPEN!
- Countries run by women like New Zealand and Germany have done much better with keeping their people safe.

We celebrate Black History Month by honoring all of the Tuskegee Airmen: patriotic, heroic, black American pilots who flew the famous Red-Tail fighter jets in WWII.
We also salute Stacey Abrams for her tireless hard work in turning Georgia a more democratic blue. And, of course, we honor the voice and memory of the Reverend Martin Luther King, Jr., PhD, and his 'Dream' of Equality and Justice for ALL Americans... |

Card billing is safely processed by the web leader, Authorize.net.

~Allow at least two weeks for us to ship your order~
Larger orders may take even longer right now.
Ship times are slower during the busy seed months (Jan.-May).
NOTE: If your billing and shipping addresses do NOT match, your order will be Delayed, or Cancelled.
Also, Authorize.net uses an address matching system to the address on file with your card company. If you recently moved and your card is not updated with your bank, your order will be REJECTED as a non-match.
Addresses MUST match!
About 10% of all my orders are declined due to this anti-fraud feature. Also, I do NOT allow customers to place orders using the card of a friend or relative unless the last names and addresses match. In other words, you can only use the card of a married spouse with the same last name and address.
Please just use your own card!
NO Corporate cards without prior approval!

We Support American Workers
We offer a variety of USA-made, USA-grown, USDA Certified Organic, local organic, wild- crafted, heirloom, high-quality, premium seeds, herbs, formulas and organic chemicals, and many rare Wicca and Shaman herbs used by indigenous Native American people for thousands of years. I personally grow some of my seeds at my NightShade Urban Farm, responsibly wild-craft others, and buy the remainder from the best sources we can find domestically, and worldwide when necessary. We buy as little as possible from China (other than a a handful of rare TCM seeds). We support American workers first and foremost.
We sell:
Healthy, Happy, Holy, Wholesome Healing Herbs, and Organic Botanicals (5HO)

Here at White Buffalo Trading, our backyard supports over 50 species of plants, one healthy hive of Honey Bees, and a breeding colony of the Gulf Fritillary, a beautiful orange butterfly that lays eggs only upon three species of Passiflora. Our large Purple Passionflower plant supports about 40-60 voracious black and orange caterpillars and about 20 breeding butterflies that chase each other all day right here. They flutter and flirt, flutter and flirt, feed, repeat.

FACT: In just the last 10 years, a full HALF of all of America's honey bees have died! Bee colonies are in crisis (CCD)!
The top three reasons: 'Neonic' pesticides, bee pests/mites, and Big-Ag mono-cropping!
How You can Help Save the Bees:
Plant more bee-friendly plants and add a dedicated pollinator garden to your landscape. Plant lavender!
Stop using any deadly neonicotinoid pesticides at home and elsewhere.
Complain to the manager of any store selling neonicotinoid pesticides, and boycott that department.
Ask farmers at your local farmer's market if they use neonicotinoid pesticides, and refuse to buy from them if they do.
Become a beekeeper and help to educate others. This issue is as important as Climate Change and Plastic Pollution.
Read more about 'neonics' killing honey bee colonies here (as reported in the European press).
Feb. 14, 2020: Scientists release a new study that finds within 50 years from now, a full One-Third of ALL SPECIES now on Earth will be EXTINCT! Humans were not included, somehow, on the list, but that is still millions of plants and animals. Do you believe in the Darwinian idea of Survival of the Fittest? What if humans are not fit enough to survive?
Save the Bees, please! Save our Heirloom Plants!
and thereby... Save the Humans!

Wasp Primer; more info on beneficial insects:
Learn to distinguish problem insects from beneficial insects. Save the Bees, please.
Honey bees are more than beneficial; they are needed for human life! Call a local Bee Guild to catch honey bee swarms; do not spray them with chemicals and kill a whole hive! A swarm-full of bees are simply looking for a new home, and bee keepers are happy to help. 10,000 buzzing bees all flying around your house can be scary, so call an expert to help. The bees have a retail value of $100-200, so beekeepers are happy to help for free. About 75% of all bee swarms fail and die unless captured and re-homed by a knowledgeable bee keeper. Save the Bees, please.
Bees are a highly-evolved, matriarchal society that is also one of very few animals on Earth that eats neither plants nor other animals. Bees are smart. They can count to four, recognize human faces, and with their special "bee dance" they communicate to other bees the exact location of new food sources. Bees deserve our respect and help.
The 'European Wasp' is known as the Hornet or Yellow Jacket and is a pest that attacks people without provocation (they are garden friendly, but not people friendly). The Yellow Jacket Queens will winter over in sheltered areas (inside barns, storage cars, attics, garden sheds, garages, etc.) and if killed by a human, that will stop the spread of millions (each hive splits into two every six weeks) of these aggressive wasps that harass picnickers with unprovoked attacks. The yellow jackets look like a little bullet with all three parts of their body in close proximity and not disjointed. Their color is black stripes over a yellow body. Friendly wasps have yellow over a mostly black body.
By contrast, the friendly paper and mud dauber wasps have a distinguishable, narrow joint connecting the rear body parts. The paper wasp has similar coloring to hornets with its yellow and black, but they do not attack humans. Often a whole hive will flock to fresh water from the garden hose or sprinklers to drink and hydrate. (Honey bees prefer mud as their water source.) I have had paper wasps land on me without incident. They only look scary. The gentle Paper Wasps and Mud Daubers are both human-friendly and garden-friendly. Please, do NOT exterminate these beneficial wasps! They do NOT attack humans. Learn the visual differences here:
