* * IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT * *
After 7 1/2 years, the time has come to close The Smart Seed. This business has blessed our family in so many ways and I will forever be grateful for the relationships I have built with customers, retailers, and other small business owners. The loyalty and support I have received has been such an encouragement to me over the years, and I cannot thank you enough!
WHAT'S NEXT . . .
As of October 5, 2024, my online Etsy shop is closed.
I have stocked several of my retailers with their final orders, so my products are still available at select stores until their inventory is sold. Click on "WHERE TO BUY" for a list of retailers.
I would LOVE for you to shop local and support these amazing shops!
ABOUT
The Smart Seed flax seed therapy packs are natural way to gently soothe life's aches and pains.
Each pack is handmade and contains 100% flax seed grown in North Dakota. Select from a variety of packs that are just the right size for the neck/shoulders, abdomen, back, eye/sinuses, and children's boo boos. Packs can be stored in the freezer for cooling therapy or warmed in the microwave for heat therapy. All items are carefully hand sewn and beautifully packaged to enjoy or give as a gift.
