There are so many new friends and followers here! My gosh, hello, all! As you land here on this page, let me be crystal clear -

I don’t garden for aesthetic optics or internet clout. I garden to feed my family AND my neighbors.

I don’t forage from the land to take something I think I’m owed or something that comes without relationship. I do it to keep reciprocity and lineage alive.

I don’t practice herbalism to fix or grift. I practice it as an ancestral craft that has held generations of relationship between land and people.

I don’t cook and bake with simple, fresh ingredients for alt-right influencer content. I do it to subvert convenience culture & as a daily practice of devotional, nourishing ceremony.

I don’t plant to exert control over the environment. I do it to rewild spaces and in effort to steward what land I have the fortune of being in communion with.

I don’t gather to virtue signal or cosplay guru. I do it to share resources, learn, & grow as a human and as a group.

And I create as prayers of faith for futures ahead & generations I may never see.

So if you’re looking for the coffee e***a plastic wrapped white sage seed oils are the devil flavor of “wellness”, I am not your gal. BUTTT, if you’re searching for the deconstructionist life is an enigma everything is an ecosystem flavor…you’re in the right place ❤️

Some Walpurgisnacht ritual & energy bending mischief coming to the digital apothecary 💫

These devotionally crafted magickal formulae have long interwoven my craft & path, and they have been loud about visibility- so I listen as the herbalist witch midwife I am.

FORTUNA: ride the wheel of prosperity, abundance, & good fortune, yet take care to not feed greed too high to the top, lest the goddess drop you to the depths of the other side.

ORACULUM: commune with the realms beyond, see the immortals in hazed trance, divine with the bleeding of self across the hedge as it shift shapes.

EXSOLVO: uncross what binds & ties, dissolve blockages, and open roads to your highest fate. See the golden thread and grasp it like a serpent.

SACRAMENTUM: pour your devotion like a gushing holy well, where there is take there must be give, offer your sacred gratitude on your knees.

AEGIS: The mythic shield of protection, reflect & reverse, fortify the castle walls where permeability shows leaks.

✨AVAILABLE 4/30 at 7:00 PM EST✨

From my roots of ragged rage, the most beautiful blooms shall grow.

‼️MY SOUTH SHORE, MA LOCAL FRIENDS & COMMUNITY- THIS ONE IS FOR YOU!‼️

I’ve been brewing some ideas in my brain cauldron for some time, and we have reached the seasonal threshold where it is time for them to unfurl.

This year I’ll be opening my garden & time in some additional ways beyond the Earthwoven sabbat rituals and garden parties. Not structured events or formal classes, these sweet little garden prayer drop in days will serve as a no-pressure & no-cost way to come together and get garden savvy.

Wanna start seeds but are intimidated? Wanna learn how to grow your own food? Wanna hang out with chickens? Wanna help harvest & process medicinal herbs? Cool- we’ll do all of that & more together! I’ve got plenty of knowledge, extra supplies, passion for humanity, & distain for establishment.

if you’re local and want to be part of these moments, I plan to share activities, days, & times through a one-way whatsapp group (to get you OFF socials too 😉). So drop a comment or message, tell your friends, and we’ll get this going! 🌿

A moment for the plant potions 💫

Yesterday I recorded a podcast with and we talked all about Gate & Garden’s beginning (among a lot of other cool herbalism, witchy, pagan, and cultural stuff).

I reflect on this often, but how many of you knew that this robust apothecary began with ONE product?

Well, kind of at least. I had predominantly been a community herbalist for some time, but I began Gate & Garden as a more formal business by retailing one singular product (bonus points for those of you who know which one- I still offer it today)!

As I step more fully into the role of herbal teacher & mentor, walking alongside 15 or so students in Wild Heart Herbalism this year, I just wanted to take a moment of gratitude for these potions that helped build me to that place 🖤

So thank you poison plant essences, botanical body oils, ritual candles, herbal elixirs, and beyond. Here’s to hopefully many more bottles & jars filled with hand & heart crafted magick!

No matter the pace, the air is warming & the first green shoots are bringing us closer to late spring. Soon enough, blessed Beltane will be upon us; and with it, another exciting Earthwoven community ritual!

For Beltane, we welcome back ! A returning favorite facilitator from last year, Kim is an earth artist and a lover of both dirt and sky. An avid birder, forager, photographer, and insect enthusiast, she embraces the natural world around her with gusto and deep reverence. She moves through the forest with ease, curiosity, and open ears, enthusiastically teaching others to listen as well.

In this beautifully aligned seasonal celebration, Kim will lead us in flower crown weaving! Together, we’ll gather blooms & intentions to become ancestral adornments of renewal, fertility, and the wild joy of spring.

As always, we’ll all also gather around a lush snack spread of homemade garden to table gluten free nibbles, alongside a Gate & Garden custom blended ritual tea as we imbibe in a opening story circle around the living altar.

Join us for a sure-to-be delightful evening of community, celebration, togetherness, and honoring the old ways on May 1st! RSVP through Gate & Garden’s site while tickets last, and we’ll see you in the garden! 🌸

The wisdom you seek is right outside your door.

I don’t claim to be, nor position myself as some grand thinker or ancient oracle; but I’ve managed to stumble upon & collect profundities that seemingly go beyond my lived years (or so I’ve been told far more than once).

Of course, I’ve spent decades learning, studying, and reading. From the language of the body, to the chemistry of plants, to the vast corridors of the mind and how all of those threads entwine. That education absolutely matters in structure & responsibility.

But I didn’t study with renowned gurus or famous named philosophers, nor did I travel to the far corners of the globe to learn from healers, monks, or masters.

I just went outside.

I laid in the grass and forgot linear time.
I worshiped rot, ruin, & renewal on the forest floor.
I touched trees older than the undying gods.
I stewarded & tended plants and creatures alike.

All of my books and courses and degrees and certificates and study simply gave a way to apply the wisdom that already lived in a body deeply connected to nature.

I used to feel a dull pang of embarrassment when asked “where did you learn all of this?!” from eyes surely expecting a prestigious answer; knowing my reply would illustrate that I managed to find what people endlessly search their entire lives for in the most mundane of places.

But oh! How liberating that is, actually. Because it is free to us all if we just decide to go outside to find what we’ve been looking for.

There is a crooked old tale that says if you want to know who you are, go to the forest.

It instructs you to bring a pot of honey & your sharpest blade; to wander until you find the tallest tree...and then to cut off your head.

You wander the inky black forest until you can wander no longer. Of course, having found yourself returned to the tree with your ragged maw at its base. You are to reattach your head by anointing it and your neck with the sticky, sweet honey.

And so, you’ve returned.

You’ve wandered, listened, forgot, & remembered.
And you’ve come back not as someone new, but as someone truer.
Your aliveness and whole-ness have been changed & decadently sweetened by the experience.

This is the radically transformative magick of remembering yourself through relationship with the natural world.
And thusly, it too, is the spirit of Wild Heart Herbalism.

But the path cannot stay open forever— the doors for Wild Heart Herbalism are closing at the end of April.

If this path has been circling in your brain cauldron and fluttering in your heart... I invite you to consider losing your head.

Knowing that if you do, you’ll return sweeter & more whole than how you began.
