Our Journey

The seeds of Botanica Escondida were planted in the Rio Grande Valley of Texas, where our founder was immersed in a culture steeped in folk magic and devout Catholicism. From a young age, he learned the art of petitioning saints for intercession, a practice passed down from his mother.

Embracing Folk Catholicism

Folk Catholicism differs from mainstream Catholicism in its approach to the human condition. We acknowledge human weaknesses without imparting guilt or shame, offering avenues for grace and pardon through practices like confession and indulgences. Saints play a central role in our practice, acting as intermediaries who understand our struggles and advocate on our behalf. By building relationships with saints, you can gain a powerful ally in shaping your destiny.
