Wander, Forage, & Wildcraft
Hey there! I'm the founder of the WANDER School (The Wild Artemisia Nature Discovery, Empowerment, and Reconnection School) and a Botanist, Herbalist, and Professional Forager. Our mission at the school is to offer nature and herbal education that creates healing through connection with the natural world and each other to create local and global health and prosperity. I teach all over these Appalachian Mountains and the country. Let's talk about foraging, wild plant & mushroom awesomeness, herbal goodness and more. I want to help you reconnect with nature to empower yourself with free food and medicine. Let me know what you think, what you wanna know and if you hear something you like, please share far and wide.
