About

Welcome to Humble Housewives, where faith and wellness come together in the heart of Catholic tradition! We're the Fernandez Family, and this is our story.

During a critical medical crisis in Mary's fourth pregnancy, our faith was put to the test. With no help from conventional medicine, we turned to God in prayer. Through St. Jude's intercession and the guidance of a homeopathic physician, we discovered the healing potential of plants and minerals. We witnessed a miraculous recovery—a life-threatening clot reabsorbed, and we welcomed our beautiful daughter unharmed and thriving!

This pivotal moment ignited Mary's passion for exploring nature's healing properties, provided for us by our Creator. To further this mission, she is training to become a Registered Herbalist specializing in Traditional European Medicine—a system dating back to 500 BC, carefully preserved and advanced by monks and nuns for over a thousand years, and still in use today. On our blog, Mary shares what she is learning, including the timeless wisdom of St. Hildegard von Bingen, the Benedictines, and other key figures in Catholic herbal medicine.

Our mission is to empower fellow moms (and dads) with natural, holistic tools to keep their families healthy. Our collection of artisanal botanicals and devotional books are made with love, each item upholding the sanctity of life and our Catholic values. Your support of our ministry means the world to us, and you are ever in our prayers!

Thank you for joining us on our journey toward health of body and soul, and complete harmony with God's Holy Will. May Our Blessed Lord, Our Lady, St. Joseph, and all the saints bless you and keep you!
