For me, it always begins with nature.

It’s where I always return to heal, to reconnect, and to nourish myself. I haven’t always been a master gardener or confident forager and wildcrafter. I used to work, for many years, in demanding office jobs that left me depleted and disconnected from myself, others, and nature.

Life was overwhelmingly busy and stressful with only a few hours each week to be outside or care for myself. But with those precious few hours I slowly began to teach myself the art and science of self-sustenance through gardening and wild foraging.

I’ve spent over 9 years painstakingly researching, digging, planting, pruning, killing plants, learning how to help them thrive, identifying wild botanicals, and eventually harvesting an abundance of edible and medicinal plants. Each plant that I learned to successfully grow or forage and craft with sustained me, both in body and soul.

Overtime, I learned exactly how to slow down my busy life, follow my true north, and sustain myself. Now, I confidently know how to grow my own organic food, identify wild plants, and nourish myself with nature.

I know you want to be a confident gardener, forager,
and self-sustainer, too.

In order to do that, you need to understand plants and nature’s cycles. But, life is busy, and it’s difficult to find the time, which makes you feel depleted and disconnected from yourself, others, and the world around you. I know what it’s like to feel exhausted, depleted, and disconnected because of that lifestyle. 

I believe that nourishing the soul begins with nourishing the body.
