About Us

The Grounded Ginger is a soulful and gentle brand committed to creating all-natural products for all. Our offerings have expanded to include Make + Take Workshops + Classes, which can be booked as private events.  Rooted in a love for creating and a deep belief in the healing power of the natural world, The Grounded Ginger has become synonymous with sustainable and intentional living. The Grounded Ginger's studio & shop can be found in the picturesque town of West Galway at the foothills of the Adirondacks in Upstate New York.  With its authentic post and beam style, the shop cultivates a feeling of rustic sophistication.  Upon entering, the smell of fresh Eastern White Pine swirls with the scent of hand poured candles and artisan soaps, greeting customers with a warm embrace.

Stacey Kozak, Owner and Creator, began her journey in self-taught alchemy in 2009 while making non-toxic skincare remedies for her two young boys. As the boys grew, so did the brand. Drawing on years of experience living a lifestyle connected to homesteading, including gardening, raising livestock, herbalism and food preservation, Stacey began creating products with oils, herbs and botanicals. In 2012, The Grounded Ginger was established as an online Etsy Shop. "I visualize my handcrafted products adding positive energy and harmony to your everyday routine". 

Stacey holds a Master of Science in Education Degree {Community Mental Health Counseling} combined with over twenty-five years of experience as a Mental Health Therapist. Pivoting to holistic wellness practices, Stacey managed her Intuitive Life Coaching services from 2021 to 2023, honoring the total mind, body, and soul connection.   

Stacey lives and grows her business with her heart wide open and believes in the conscious integration of science and spirituality. Stacey is passionate about guiding individuals, especially women, on their wellness journeys. Through Workshops and Classes, Stacey strives to inspire others through learning how to connect more closely with the natural world while learning new skills and building healthy routines and daily rituals.
