Founded in 2010 by Stacey Wood, Whole Harmony blossomed from a deep desire to empower individuals to achieve holistic wellness through the healing power of plants. Stacey's personal experience with balancing well-being led her to explore alternative approaches beyond traditional Western medicine. Inspired by the ancient wisdom of herbal remedies and traditional healing practices like Traditional Chinese Medicine, Stacey embarked on a journey to become a certified herbalist. Whole Harmony reflects this dedication to making plant-based medicine accessible for a new standard of wellness.
Our Mission
Our Founder(s)
Stacey Wood, founder of Whole Harmony, brings a unique perspective and a wealth of experience to the world of plant-based wellness. Her journey began in the vibrant hospitality industry, where she honed her skills as a server and certified mixologist for over ten years. This experience instilled in her a deep appreciation for the power of combining flavors to create delightful and memorable experiences.
However, Stacey's personal quest for holistic well-being led her to explore alternative approaches beyond traditional Western medicine. Inspired by the ancient wisdom of herbal remedies and traditional healing practices like Traditional Chinese Medicine, Stacey embarked on a path of discovery, ultimately becoming a certified herbalist.
Whole Harmony reflects this evolution, a beautiful blend of Stacey's passion for creating harmonious flavor combinations and her commitment to harnessing the power of plants for natural wellness. She is deeply connected to her heritage as a member of the Bear Clan of the Mohawk Nation located in Akwesasne that straddles the United States and Canada along the banks of the beautiful St. Lawrence River. Stacey feels a strong sense of purpose in upholding the Bear Clan tradition of healers and medicine makers. Through Whole Harmony, Stacey shares her passion for plant-based wellness and empowers others to embrace the natural approach to holistic living.
David Soule, co-founder of Whole Harmony, embodies the perfect blend of business savvy and a deep respect for the healing power of plants. Though his background boasts a degree in business management, David's true calling lies in the realm of herbalism. Following a successful career in finance, he embarked on a transformative journey, dedicating over 14 years to becoming a certified herbalist. This extensive experience included studying under the guidance of esteemed practitioners and herbal farmers. David's connection to nature extends far beyond herbal medicine. Hailing from a long line of New England farmers, he carries a deep appreciation for the natural world. An avid outdoorsman, David enjoys activities like running, cycling, hiking, and camping, constantly immersing himself in the beauty and bounty of nature.
Together, Stacey and Dave, with their unbridled knowledge and passion for herbal medicine, have grown from making their products on their kitchen table and selling them at local farmers market to a now nationally recognized brand.
