About us

Gaia Botanica was born out of a deep passion for natural medicine, a love for daily rituals, and a strong commitment to caring for the planet. Every Gaia Botanica product is uniquely formulated by a naturopath and carefully handcrafted on Kaurna Yarta, using only the highest quality, ethically sourced, certified organic ingredients.

Our collection is designed not only to deliver therapeutic benefits and extraordinary flavors but also to offer a product you’ll be proud to display. We encourage simple, everyday rituals that enhance well-being and bring a sense of calm to your routine.

Thoughtfully crafted, our range is meant to inspire you to savour quiet moments, nourish your health, and prioritise self-care.

Founded in South Australia in 2021 by clinical naturopath Lily Zurlino and clinical nutritionist Anushka Malcolm, Gaia Botanica reflects their shared love for natural medicine, daily rituals, and sustainability. Today, the business is solely owned and operated by Anushka.
