Bushwick Botanica

author: upfromflames : Brooklyn, NY

Botanicas are generally religious supply shops where you can buy items for use in the practice of Santeria. The name comes from the dried and fresh herbs sold for their medicinal and spiritual properties But there is so much more for available here for sale, in a syncretistic swirl that seems to unite every cultural tradition under the sun.
