OUR STORY

Redefining Expectations

As female founders, entrepreneurs, and mothers, Jewel and Taylor experienced this first hand where true necessity led them to the creation of Juna. Juna is redefining wellness by creating plant powered formulas to optimize mind, body, mood and sleep.

Collectively we aspire to optimize our lives and show up as the best version of ourselves for not only our business, but for our families and personal passions. While it’s easy to turn to pharmaceutical solutions and quick fix supplements, new-age wellness studies are shining light on plant-powered alternatives. Cannabis, hemp and other botanicals are re-setting our body's ecosystem and creating long-term benefits and solutions to everyday challenges.

We believe nature is the best chemist and plants are the ultimate representation of self-care. All Juna’s products are formulated with either certified organic ingredients or ingredients grown with organic and or biodynamic practices to ensure nutrient rich, active botanicals are in every drop.

Juna’s products release the body, engage the mind, enhance social situations, and tastefully integrate into every moment of your day - from your morning coffee to nightly restorative sleep. Our finished products have a pleasant herbal taste that can be dropped under the tongue or added to a food or beverage of choice without compromising flavor.

Juna represents the growing wave of those who know: when you care for your mind, body, and mood - you bring your best self to the table and help others do the same.
