John and Jillian Kerr created Springfields in 1989 in their Sydney home, at a time when natural skincare and aromatherapy was still in its infancy. The company grew out of John and Jillian's passion for nature and their belief that one's wellbeing should be sustained and nurtured by the beauty and quality of nature. John is an academic in Botanical medicine, essential oil chemistry, aromatherapy and wound care. He is a sought after lecturer and has presented at major conferences around the world including USA, UK, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Korea and New Zealand and has co-founded two internationally respected journals; 'Aromatherapy Today' and 'The International Journal of Clinical Aromatherapy'.

17.01.2022 Please don't feed my bees The past few weeks I've seen post after post about how bees are starving. How if you just feed them their futures will be so much... more optimistic. Most of this originated from a post reportedly shared by Sir David Attenborough who was reflecting on a situation and context far different to that in which we live in Australia. He was talking about a geographical area where honey bees and bumble bees are native insects; where they exist in both a managed and unmanaged (natural) context and where they are fighting pests and diseases that are yet to reach our shores. In Australia, Apis Mellifera, the European Honeybee, is an introduced species. For the most part, they're managed by beekeepers who have taken on the responsibility to care for their bees. While not all beekeepers make the best choices, it is ultimately their role to decide on the needs of the colonies they own. Most of us choose not to feed our bees. Instead we make conservative decisions about honey harvesting to ensure that they can live on the nectar and pollen they forage from natural sources. If my bees were at risk of starvation I would be the first to intervene to feed them to help them through. The suggestions on posts I've seen started with a teaspoon of sugar syrup for a solitary fatigued bee and have progressed to suggestions of filling birdbaths and buckets with syrup with floats/pebbles. One post even had people saying they buy honey from the supermarket to feed bees! Knowing that others may be feeding my bees unnecessarily with open air feeders is really sad for me. They have surplus honey they made to feed on which is nutritionally far superior than heavily processed man-made cane sugars. Most importantly, it is against the Biosecurity Code of Practice in Australia to feed honey. This practice carries a very high risk of spreading diseases such as AFB, which would mean certain death for a bee colony and likely many more hives in the vicinity. In areas of extreme drought conditions as we're seeing in parts of NSW and QLD, many are already feeding their bees. When we do so we avoid certain sugars which can cause dysentery for the bees and often incorporate specific additives to improve their health. Bees will store syrup in the same way they do nectar, thus making tainted honey if enough is provided for them. Ultimately we only feed when there is no other choice and this is the reason why Australian honey can be relied upon for quality and its pure state. I prefer my honey to come from nectar gathered from flowers rather than cane sugar or corn syrup, which pervades most things we eat these days. So pretty please with cherry on top, can I ask Aussie good Samaritans to think twice about feeding bees. Bees can and will die from exhaustion, but making sugary food sources available to save lethargic Bees may be doing more damage than good. #beekeeping #bees #apiary #pollinators #beekeeper #beekeepers #apis #pollinator #insects #urbanbeekeeping #sustainability #Australia #busybees #backyardbeekeeping #honey #organic #nectar #liquidgold #nosugar #processedsugarisbad #feedbeeswithflowers See more

11.01.2022 The four legged variety of course

10.01.2022 Tinderbox is a small, earthy Australian business based on herbalism. It evolved from an authentic love of plants, a passion for healing and exploring the myriad ways of creating pure and safe products for family and friends. In 1982, there were very few natural products on the market. Tinderbox opened a shop in the township of Balingup West Australia; an unusual shop as people discovered. The business blossomed as more people came to the Tinderbox to try these pure plant pro...ducts that really seemed to work. Through positive word of mouth and no advertising, the business grew "organically" from strength to strength, reaching more concerned and discerning people through select, compatible outlets; mainly health stores. The commitment to use only quality ingredients from the plant world and to ensure the end product is not corrupted with any hidden chemical additives has remained a salient objective of the business to this day. Being in the Tinderbox can ignite a spark of knowing, like tuning in to a common wellspring of plant lore that is inherently part of being human. Somehow people recognise this when they smell and feel the products; it is like they could have made them themselves, so familiar are they. Indeed, plants do possess a biochemical intelligence that speaks directly to the human organism. It is this symbiosis between plants and humans that we explore and develop. Each product has been created with herbs whose healing principles we have grown to understand. We care about the ingredients being of the highest quality and with high standards of quality control, we ensure that the herbs we use are clean and fresh, with their colour and aroma still intact; thus their medicinal and cosmetic values are conserved. Utmost consideration is given to the inherent potential of each herb plant. Every botanically-based product is hand-made in small batches; so we do not resort to the usual odious preservative systems that can be potentially hazardous to your health. We try to use organic products wherever possible. Quality is the salient objective over quantity. It is all beautifully packaged in recyclable containers. We use a lot of blue glass; which is the most healing and protective colour for vessels containing fragile botanicals.
