As a child, I remember rows of lemon balm surrounding the garden. My mother planted them to deter pests, but we later learned that Lemon Balm is a super herb for the nervous system. As I got older, gardening transformed from a childhood chore to a passion and path to healing - for myself and my loved ones.

​

I believe strongly in the magic and profound ability of medicinal plants to restore balance. Beginning in 2015, I immersed myself in studying the wide world of plants. I completed the Beginner Herbalist, Beyond Home Herbalist, and Advanced Herbalist series with Maria Noel Groves. I joined the American Herbalists Guild,  and I regularly attend herbal conferences and workshops, and continue my education through The Herbal Academy.

​

With a background as a public school teacher, my greatest joy is sharing what I have learned and the experiences that herbs have provided to me. My hope is that you, too, discover the fascinating world of herbs and find your own supportive magic in these ancient, powerful plant friends.
