Q+A
What inspired you to launch a green company? I grew up in Iran where nature is a big part of the culture – gardens, orchards, fresh, organic fruit and veg, herbal medicine and seasonal eating. I didn’t think much about that until I was studying pharmacy and chose to specialise in pharmacognosy (medicinal drugs obtained from plants or other natural sources). As a pharmacist, I was always looking for alternatives to over-the-counter medicines and grew interested in herbs, homeopathy, aromatherapy and flower essences. When I discovered homeopathy, it led me to organic medicines and there was no going back. It became so important to me, I quit my job to follow my dream.
