I started The Medicine Circle over 20 years ago with the intention of learning to forage, grow and prepare food and remedies to heal restore and then to share what I learned through apprenticeship and study with the wider community. The practice of culinary herbalism is connecting to the plants deeply and seeing them as an integral part of our everyday lives. Culinary herbalism is a practice of traditional food ways, a bridge to community, to our ancestors, to health and joy.
