Cultivating Wellness from Our Roots
Benito and Consuelo Farm joins St. Michael & Company in cultivating herbs and plants for essential oils
From the heart of our family’s ancestral land, the Benito and Consuelo Farm is entering a new and exciting chapter — one that continues our parents’ legacy of nurturing the earth, while aligning with the mission of St. Michael & Company to bring holistic wellness from nature’s abundance.
In this new endeavor, the farm will assist St. Michael & Company in cultivating herbs and aromatic plants that will yield pure essential oils — natural ingredients that form the foundation of our wellness products. This partnership bridges heritage and healing, connecting the roots of our family’s story to the broader purpose of creating sustainable, locally grown botanicals for wellness and self-care.
Our initial plantings include 20 variety of herbs, 30 citrus trees and 50 flowering plants such as Jasmine (Sampaguita) and Ylang-Ylang — blooms long cherished in Filipino culture for their fragrance, beauty, and calming essence. These will soon be joined by herbs and other botanicals chosen for their therapeutic properties, all cultivated with care and respect for the land.
Every tree and plant we nurture honors the memory of Benito and Consuelo Mendoza, whose love for the soil and family continues to guide us. As the farm grows, it becomes more than a home — it becomes a source of healing and purpose, empowering our community and enriching the work of St. Michael & Company’s holistic wellness mission.
Together, we are cultivating wellness from our roots — a legacy of love, land, and life renewed through nature.
“From the earth they tended, new life continues to bloom — a living tribute to faith, family, and the healing power of nature.”
