He sells smudge bundles made of lavender, sage, mudwort, and yarrow he grows in his yard, and feathers from his hens and turkeys. “I like to live off the land and I like to show people truly what mother nature provides us is beauty, and the healing aspect so that’s why I do it,” Glass said. “To make people happy, to heal them, nurture them, cleanse whatever negative energies that are around them.”
