Trillium Herbal Company was started in Door County, 1994, but it's roots in the County run deeper. Trillium's founder and formulator, Karen Ciesar has been coming to the Bowl since 1969. That's the year that 5 friends invested their Whiting High School Investment pool and purchased the Thorp Hotel, and the The Whiting Five became the Founders Square Families. Soon to be just three families, the Ciesars, Rusnacks and Domans created iconic vacation shopping experiences most notably, the Fish Creek Clothier, the Silly Goose, and the Confectionery, and many more. Karen herself ran the Founders Square Gallery, and Ciesar's Palace through the 80's.
Friday Night at "the Bowl" is our family's most enduring ritual.
Back in the 70's, the road to the Bowl was five and half hours of two lane roads. Each family in their own car, often suggesting new clever back road routes to shave minutes off the drive. Our Dads would take different routes and race one another!. We were all of one mind, "Just get to the Bowl!".
Back then there was a bandstand in the bar room. When "The Birminghams" played, everyone danced. When Earl and Rita would take the dance floor, we all gave them some room to 'show us how it's done'. Rita stepped out with the fastest footwork any of us kids had ever seen. We all swore we saw smoke flying off her heels.
We love the Sister Bay Bowl, and still come most Fridays. The picture is my own children bowling last summer. Placing Body Polish at the lavatory is our way of honoring the Ciesar family's long tradition in Door County.

SISTER BAY BOWL
Are you ready for your personal care that cares about you personally?
Are you tired of skincare companies focusing upon everyone else, all the while ignoring your best interests?
You're not imagining it, that is precisely what is happening.
Even with a wink and nod to so called "body positivity" conventional skincare companies reinforce our insecurities by telling us to
"change yourself to get others' appraisal and approval"
Claims to make you
look younger,
look thinner,
look tanner,
look whiter,
look "other than you are"
kinda makes you wonder
"what the heck is wrong with me in the first place? "
We think Self Care should focus upon
what is Right with us!
Organic and Natural self care products and protocols which
take you on your own personal journey
of self perception, into self acceptance, into self empowerment, into self love.
On a solid foundation of self love,
We empower ourselves to create lives that we love!
When we live into our passions with imagination, intuition and empathy
It is though our own Self Empowerment that
we create New Earth!
Trillium was started in 1994 by a mama on a mission to create appropriately non-toxic skincare for her own young family.
OGmama, a handle she earned by creating one of the very first USDA Certified Organic Personal Care brands in 2000.
Karen still owns and operates the company.
Which brings us to the next ugly irony of conventional personal care,
it's quite often toxic!
Bodywash is a sad slurry of synthetic surfactants that strip protective lipids from your dermal biome, creating the need for moisturizers.
Lotions and creams made possible by petrochemical preservatives that destroy the probiotic balance of your dermal biome.
All of it is cloaked in synthetic fragrances, many known to be carcinogens, endocrine disruptors and hormone impersonators.
Even so called fragrance free cosmetics include a covering scent,
to hide the stench of the lies perhaps?
OGmama founded Trillium specifically to offer an alternative to
the patriarchal poisoning protocols,
our intentionally sourced and mindfully hand crafted solutions are

Trillium was founded by a fresh green lawyer, who learned early that the court system was not the only place to make change. Always the champion of women, Karen Ciesar (OGmama) and her partner brought one of the first Title 9 Sexual Harassment cases in California, ultimately established important precedent in the California Supreme Court, "Catchpole v Brannon,1995." Look it up, it's a time stamped snapshot of how far women have come in America.
Karen, a new mother, began her journey into the deceptive of American personal care with the birth of her first child, Zephyr. Unable to make sense of the ingredients, and dubious of the intentions of large corporations, she studied herbalism and midwifery, and wise woman ways for the next decades. The Grand Mere's of Midwifery, Trillium birthing care, of Arcata, which inspired the naming of the brand. Later with the Living Goddess Collective that still thrives today in Sebastopol California. Blessed BE All of the Divine Feminine Incarnate who have inspired Trillium through this amazing journey.
It all started with a simple question
How did our great grandmothers handle caring for their children?
before the conventional mass marketing of toxic dis-empowerment
Karen, set out to create products that honored the grace and integrity of
humans as a part of, not "in spite of" our connection to nature she wanted to create experiences to facilitate sacred connections
of humans with themselves and with the one's they love and care for.
To that end, she devised one rule that still stands today
Trillium is made
