The Quiet Botanist, a botanical apothecary and flower shop, is coming to the Library Shop just in time for Mother’s Day! For two days only, peruse a unique assortment of their chocolates, dried and fresh floral bouquets, candles, and more, all of which make beautiful gifts for the mothers and caregivers in your life. Their delectable chocolate bars are a visual as well as delicious delight, wrapped in vintage botanical prints and beautiful gold sleeves, which highlight the botanical stamped chocolate.

Born out of a desire to slow down and listen, The Quiet Botanist was founded by Rebecca O’Donnell, a New York based award-winning Creative Director originally from Sydney, Australia. 

She draws inspiration from apothecaries of a bygone era, wild-harvested Australian botanicals, and overgrown European gardens. With their exquisite and thoughtful range of products The Quiet Botanist hopes to help foster a connection between nature, quieting, and beauty.

If you can't make it, a variety of chocolate bars are now available on our website HERE.
