Herbal greetings,
I love serving my community by offering services of placenta and plant healing. The ways of old have never been amiss from my life.
My herbal journey started as a girl in love with flowers and the smell of dirt in my grandmother’s large garden. I have practiced plant healing since childhood by making poultices for bumps & scrapes. My passions lie in bioregional folk herbalism, birth work, & supporting grassroot movement.
I am a mother of 2 boys that were born at home. I have experienced the battle of those blissful, beautiful, & painful moments the 4th trimester has to offer. As a young mother, I had no idea that placenta remedies was a thing with my first son. I struggled emotionally and with maintaining my milk supply. However, I did have the opportunity to encapsulate my placenta with my second son. The recovery, mentally & physically, was drastically smoother. The difference of that precious time was like night and day. I was far more grounded and stable to better mother my then 2 very young babies. I also had no trouble with my milk supply this time around.
These experiences is what drove me to learn more about this remedy & why it is largely missing from our culture. I had to support new mothers & families with this wonderful gift of the placenta.
