I started The Medicine Circle over 20 years ago to bring people from all over the world into community to celebrate and learn about the natural world through the lens of culinary herbalism: plants, food, healing, and beauty. Culinary herbalism is a practice of traditional food ways, a bridge to community, to our ancestors, to health and joy. My first book, Foraged & Grown: Healing, Magical Recipes for Every Season, came out in 2024.
