Our Founder:
Zaakira Galloway
Founder & CEO, Island Roots Botanicals
Registered Clinical Herbalist
I was born into the world of herbs and healing. My grandmother’s Blood Purifier was in my baby bottle, and Goldenseal was the cure for every pink eye, scratch, or cold. I didn’t know it then, but I was growing up surrounded by medicine in its purest form.
My great-grandmother taught me to swallow capsules when I was six years old. By sixteen, I was already mixing my own remedies beside my grandmother, Diane Galloway, who spent over forty years healing our community through her herbal wisdom. She showed me that true wellness doesn’t come from quick fixes, but from listening to the body and nourishing it from the roots up.
In 2019, I took everything she taught me and opened Island Roots Botanicals to carry that torch forward. Every blend, every capsule, every tea here has been touched by my hands and tested in my home. I only share what I trust and what has brought real healing to me and my family.
Today, I’m continuing my studies as a Registered Clinical Herbalist, working toward the title of Master Herbalist, just like my grandmother. This isn’t just a business for me. It’s a legacy. It’s a love story between generations of women who believed in the power of the Earth to heal.
When you visit Island Roots Botanicals in Longwood, Florida, you’re not just stepping into an herbal store. You’re stepping into a living tradition that has been growing for decades. I invite you to experience real herbal care—authentic, ancestral, and made with love.
