Meet the Staff of The Mustard Seed!
Salandrea Patrizi
Founder, Master Herbalist, Nutritional Counselor, Iridologist, Aromatherapist, Formulator, Product Development
In 1978 Salandrea moved from Nahant, Massachusetts to a quaint, 1800's farmhouse in rural Nottingham, New Hampshire. She embraced the country lifestyle and raised her 2 children, Kimberly and David, as well as many pets and barnyard animals.
In 1983, she renovated her barn and opened The Mustard Seed Workshop offering dried herbs, spices, potpourri, and crafts. The Mustard Seed sprouted and has since become one of the most well known, respected, and unique businesses that has inspired most of the herbal and natural health businesses on the east coast.
Salandrea loves working in her gardens and wildcrafts many of the herbs used in her substantial and creative line of natural body care products. She is an adventurous soul who loves to travel inwardly and outwardly. She lives with her mate Bob, and 4 rambunctious cats.
Bob Hoffman
Astrologer and Tarot Reader, Webmaster, Business Manager
Bob was born and raised in New York City. After years of searching the country for the right place to live, he discovered the seacoast of New Hampshire and southern Maine. He finally found a real home and has been here ever since.
Bob worked in the computer field for 25 years before starting a photography business in 1990. In 1993, he came to The Mustard Seed as the resident Astrologer, and eventually became Business Manager for the store.
Bob enjoys building anything and everything out of locally and sustainably harvested wood, as well as recycled and driftwood. He particularly loves designing and building furniture. Although his interests keep him busy, he still finds time to create artwork and play guitar.
Patricia Deo
Health and Healing Advocate
Patti, originally from New Jersey, spent several years living and teaching English in Ecuador. During her time in Ecuador, she learned to appreciate and value a more down-to-Earth, simple, and natural way of living. She came to the Mustard Seed in search of an environment that both embraces striking a balance in our life decisions and emphasizes looking within ourselves to find answers to our mental, physical, and spiritual well-being.
A graduate of Boston University with a Bachelor’s degree in Biology, Patti is currently attending UNH to attain a Master’s degree in Environmental Education and her Certification in Secondary Biology Education. She hopes to be able to combine her studies at graduate school and experiences in the Mustard Seed to contribute to educating future generations to have a greater awareness and respect for their “inner” and “outer” environments.
In her free time, Patti enjoys walking, cooking, and spending time with her husband and Mini-Schnauzer, Mona.
Julio
Catnip Quality Control Supervisor
Julio, a native of Portsmouth, New Hampshire, has six years experience in catnip quality control. We at The Mustard Seed are proud to have him working for us. His expertise has been invaluable. Here he is showing Lindsay the finer points of mixing catnip.
Julio loves the outdoors and can be seen hiking all over Eco-Farm in Nottingham. In his spare time he enjoys hunting, sleeping, playing, getting belly-massages, purring, and providing loving support to everyone he meets.
