When Systems Fail, Herbalists Rise

 

Right now, as food and healthcare costs soar, communities everywhere are struggling to meet basic needs.

But in the cracks of all this uncertainty, something powerful is growing—a return to the medicine that has always sustained us: the plants, the land, and one another.

You don’t have to be a clinical herbalist to help. You just have to start where you are with what you have.

This guide will show you what that can look like and remind you that you’re not alone.

Hi, I’m Mel

 

I’m a clinical herbalist, environmental educator, and lead guide on The Herbalist’s Path.

For more than two decades, I’ve been helping people use plants as medicine safely, effectively, and sustainably, while empowering herbalists to serve their communities with skill and heart.

I created Medicine for the People because I believe with my whole heart that we need an herbalist in every home and a healer in every community.
Just like it has always been—and what we need to return to now more than ever.

This guide will help you step into your role as the herbalist in your community, supporting others with the power of plants, compassion, and care.

Your Community Needs You Now More Than Ever

This guide will help you create a plan, take action, and show up for your people and for the plants.
