I love coming to these things: Herb Folk. They enable me to learn about ancient practices with plants, their properties and spirit. Thank you for organising these events.

The Herb Folk events are absolutely beautiful and such a priority in my calendar. I love the opportunity to dive deep with a particular herb and in a community of ‘like-hearted’ folk. These events of empowering people with their wellness sovereignty feel potently important for these times.

I love the [Herbal Starer] Kit. It has been so fun starting to learn more about the herbs and make and play with the beautiful herbs supplied. I especially love the infused oils.

Hi, I'm Cat

I’m an enthusiastic life learner with a passion for herbs, wild spaces, good books and great conversations and I’m on a mission to bring herbs back where they belong – into our homes.

I started my herbal journey after years of dramatic health issues and studied more intentionally when I had kids. I knew I wanted to care for them and myself naturally, and I also wanted to make sense of all the conflicting information coming at me from all directions.

I wanted to feel empowered – to feel confident in choosing the right remedies and home health-care strategies for myself and my family; not just what worked for someone else.
