Founder of Cozy Herb Co. in Washington, DC
She specializes in gentle herb solutions for every day stress!
What's one thing you love growing that you'll always make room for and why?
I'll always make room for Melissa, or Lemon Balm. She's sweet, she's gentle, she's calming. It's one of the first herbs I was introduced to and she always supports me whether I need mental relaxation or physical. In general, I'll always make room for growing nervines. It's my mission to help more people achieve calmer nervous systems through plant medicine.
What does the fall season look like through an herbalist's eyes?
It's medicine making time. With the sun going down earlier and the land going to sleep, I like to take what I've grown through the spring and summer and prepare medicine. Dehydrating herbs, infusing herbs in vinegar or alcohol so that I can have herbal support as the temperature drops.
