Dear friends,
Every story has many sides. Ours began nearly three decades ago — in a humble wooden shed at St. Benedict Monastery, Ewu, where faith met curiosity and a dream was born. That dream grew roots, sprouted wings, and became Pax Herbals — one of Africa’s largest phytomedicine research centers, a symbol of human ingenuity and the power of community. And now, in 2025, that same spirit has crossed the ocean. Against all odds — through goodwill, friendship, and a spiritual connection that transcends distance — PAX HERBAL USA was born. What once seemed impossible is now real: Pax is now fully registered in California, USA, and has launched five organic tea supplements, crafted with love and wisdom from nature. The journey here was not smooth. There were storms, doubts, and setbacks — but every challenge became a teacher, every obstacle a seed of creativity. As Nelson Mandela reminded us, “It always seems impossible until it is done.”
To all who believed, supported, and shared this journey — thank you. You are part of our living story. To our Pax agents, you are our ambassadors of healing — spreading the good news of nature’s cure. But our mission is larger than teas or herbs. It is a call to make peace with the Earth. Because wars against nature are wars against ourselves. When rivers are poisoned, forests fall, and seeds are stolen, it is not only nature that suffers — it is our future, our food, our very breath. Yet hope is alive.
To make peace with the Earth is to remember that we belong to her family — to plant trees, protect soil, save seeds, and cherish clean water. True wealth is not in banks, but in fertile land, pure air, and thriving communities. Let us heal what has been broken. Let us resist greed and rediscover gratitude. When we heal the Earth, we heal ourselves. When we sow peace with the Earth, we sow hope for generations to come.
Join us on this journey of beauty, joy, and renewal.
