Arthur is a botanical researcher and an advocate for reconnection with nature on a base level. He believes this will help us achieve deeper nourishment, epic health, and a more wholesome and fulfilling life.

Living his truth at the Delta Institute of Natural History, he runs in-depth classes in foraging, herbal medicine, and ancestral lifestyles. As the author of six books and 20+ peer-reviewed journals on wild plants, his incredible research shows returning to our biological norms will slow and even stop disease. How cool is that!

Arthur has dedicated his life to studying, practicing and living as close to nature as possible and it shows in his expert knowledge. I was blown away by his vast understanding of the natural world and library of meaningful ancestral lessons!
