Our Story & Mission

Our mission is to let plants lead us on the path toward vibrant health and thriving communities for all.

Urban Moonshine was started in Jovial King's kitchen in 2008 in Burlington, Vermont. We have grown from a booth at the local farmers' market to a nationally recognized brand, while staying true to our mission of bringing herbal medicine to more people and changing the way we think about the power of plants.
