About Us
Culture: constitutes the holistic wisdom that conscientious life forms seek to pass from generation to generation, including the knowledge of the arts, crafts, sciences, literature, and tribal belief systems, as well as agriculture and culinary techniques. Culture comes from the Latin word cultura (to cultivate). This includes the cultivation of land, plants, animals, and the micro-organisms that protect us from pathogens, preserve our foods naturally without technology, and deliver the nutrients our bodies need to survive rapid changes and extreme conditions.
Welcome! We are a rural family living in our own trial and error process of creating a multi- generational family perma-culture that includes all levels of life, from micro-organisms, to human beings and our planet. We have been using natural health methods for many years, growing and wild-crafting herbs, and making our own herbal formulas, tinctures, poultices, infusions, teas, hair rinses, bath soaks, soaps, salves and creams. When we introduced fermented foods and ancient cultures to our diets, and our homemade skin care products, we experienced tremendous improvements in our health and well-being. We also discovered that by creating symbiotic relationships with ancient living cultures, we began to rapidly awaken to our own expanded history and our divine purpose on earth.
Our Purpose: Here at Clearwater Cultures we seek to mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually integrate the wisdom of ancient cultures into the present day circumstances of our lives in order to create a continuity of our family lines and species. We believe that our quality of life is directly related to the amount of truthful information we have access to.
