Where Curiosity Begins

Begin as a student. Grow into a community herbalist.

You don't need a greenhouse, a certificate, or a Latin name memorized. You need one plant growing near you, and the willingness to go say hello to it, maybe pick it up, turn it over, wonder about it for a minute. That's really how most herbalists begin.
