The Pheotera Grove Story
Crafting natural alternatives for muscle comfort, skin care, and intimate connections since 2015.
From Oregon Budtender to Topical Pioneer
Back in 2015, our founder Jenny sought a more effective, natural over-the-counter remedy for everyday physical pain. Drawing on her rich background as a budtender in Oregon's pioneering cannabis industry, she began hand-formulating topical remedies that combined full-spectrum cannabis with soothing plant oils.
Her initial formulation—which became the legendary Pain Stick—was received with such overwhelming enthusiasm that friends, family, and patients begged for remedies for other physical needs. She expanded her apothecary to nourish dry irritated skin, ease body tension, and support intimate connection.
What began as a single handcrafted remedy in her Oregon kitchen slowly grew into a considered collection. Jenny refined each formula through patient trial and feedback, pairing full-spectrum cannabis with botanical oils chosen for their feel, scent, and purpose — always with the same goal: thoughtful self-care for everyday moments.
Our Core Mission
"It is our mission to help people discover the perfect balance of pain relief, wellness, and intimate connections through science-forward, cannabis-infused solutions."
From Kitchen to Collection
A decade of patient formulation, botanical exploration, and care.
The First Formulation
Working as a budtender in Oregon's cannabis community, Jenny began hand-formulating a cannabis-infused topical for her own everyday aches — blending full-spectrum cannabis with clean plant oils in her kitchen.
A Collection Takes Shape
Encouraged by friends and family, Jenny expanded beyond the original stick — creating formulas to nourish dry, irritated skin, ease body tension through massage, and support intimate connection.
A New Home with HIJNX
To bring Pheotera Grove to Illinois adults with consistency and compliance, Jenny partnered with HIJNX to manufacture the collection locally under the state's rigorous testing standards — fresh packaging, same thoughtful formulation.
