Who we Are

The Alchemist Den is a metaphysical and wellness boutique intentionally created as a sanctuary for healing, self-discovery, and community care—rooted in service to Queer Communities of Color, LGBTQ+ women, transmasculine individuals, and all those seeking deeper connection, clarity, and alignment.

Our offerings include over 120 loose herbs, crystals, smudge wands, incense, ritual tools, books, and small-batch body, hair, and skin care—all crafted or curated with intention, ancestral wisdom, and energetic integrity. Much of what we sell is handmade in-house, honoring the tradition of earth-based healing and plant medicine.

The Alchemist Den is also home to a collective of soul-aligned brands, including:

Millenheirs – a natural lifestyle brand focused on plant-based wellness, clean beauty, and conscious living
Love & Light Healing – a metaphysical line and spiritual ministry rooted in African traditional practice, offering guidance, ritual tools, and support for sacred feminine and womb-based healing
Rhythm & Black Ltd Co. – a plant-based food and beverage company reimagining cultural flavors with health and innovation
True Alchemy Gardens, Inc. – an initiative for environmental stewardship, herbal education, and agricultural wellness
Fertile Ground, Inc. – dedicated to affordable housing and regenerative land use for marginalized communities
The Alchemist’s Realty & Design – focused on residential and commercial real estate development, custom home building, and conceptualization services for legacy building and community wealth

Each of these offerings connects to the larger mission: to help people return to themselves, reimagine wellness, and create lives aligned with their highest purpose. The Alchemist Den is not just a store—it’s the heartbeat of a broader vision for healing, liberation, and transformation.

We're a passionate and growing team working to keep our inventory updated and our brands aligned across all platforms. We invite highly motivated interns to join us in building something intentional, transformative, and future-forward.

It is our desire to transition these into paid roles in the near future. If you are passionate about natural living, intentional entrepreneurship, and serving Queer Communities of Color, we hope you find as much joy in these roles as we do in building this vision.
