We had the good fortune of connecting with Peachtree Wellness and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Peachtree, Let’s talk about principles and values – what matters to you most?
Wellness and community are two of the main principles we value here at Peachtree Wellness. When we first opened in 2020, we saw a need in our area for holistic and plant based wellness, in lieu of fast paced, pharmaceutical fueled Western Medicine. As Atlanta natives ourselves, we identify with and connect intimately with the neighborhood because it is very much a part of us. We grew up here, went to school with a lot of these folks, have watched families be born, and we’ve mourned together. We believe it’s important to be on the forefront of holistic health to be able to source and provide alternative solutions for those in need. A healthy community is a wealthy community, and this is what fuels us.
Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?
The coolest thing about Peachtree Wellness is just how interwoven we are with the Atlanta culture. Everything about us is grassroots: from the murals in and around our building, to the custom jewelry and local brands. We love supporting local artists and other small businesses in the area who started out with a hope and a dream just like us. It’s been wonderful to see this area flourish, to be a part of what it is today, and we’re excited for our own evolution just around the corner.
This business started out as just a small CBD and crystal shop. In fact, a large portion of the crystals we started out with came from one of the owner’s personal collection. Over the years, the vision for the business has evolved with the laws and local demands, but we’ve never stepped away from CBD, crystals, and community.
We can’t reiterate how crucial it has been to have a team that’s committed to learning and growing together. Our enthusiasm for quality performance, as well as for providing something meaningful and impactful to the area has overcome any temporary challenge we’ve faced thus far. We’re excited for this next chapter coming up.
Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
Visiting the area for the first time? We’ve got a lot to offer on this side of town including several Michelin reviewed restaurants. We recommend grabbing Home Grown(*) for breakfast one day, followed by a stroll down the Atlanta Beltline, accessible from right here in Reynoldstown. Enjoy dinner with our friends just up the road at the classy and savory Miami themed restaurant, Birdcage, followed by a lively show at Atlanta’s new venue, The Eastern. As for vegan options, our friends just down the road at La Semilla(*) have you covered with farm-to-table Vegan Cubano selections. Feeling like a drink? We recommend Carroll Street Cafe for their ambiance and libations. Looking for a light lunch that stands apart from the rest? Pop into Estrellita(*) for eclectic Filipino cuisine you wont forget. To wrap up your visit, we’re plant people, so you know we’re recommending the Atlanta Botanical Gardens! We love good food, a couple edibles, and an invigorating stroll through the gardens!

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
We wouldn’t be able to provide the quality of service and quality selection of products for the neighborhood without our staff of first class wellness educators and diverse community of local artists. Our team consistently delivers new ways to keep things fun and educational, while maintaining synergy and keeping the focus on the bigger picture.
