Listen Later

My guest today is the wonderful Ebony Gheorghe. Ebony is a trained Geoscientist, currently working also as a Lab technician. She is the owner of Nettles and Bees, a small business focused on wildcrafting. plants/herbalism, reconnecting with nature and foraging. Ebony’s aim and passion is to bring those forward and merge them together through different products and projects. Ebony’s studio makes and creates foraging products and herbal products as well as working on different projects and workshops with other initiatives.

Ebony’s passion for Herbalism and for sharing this practice with others, especially those who may not have come across it before really comes through in this episode and I can’t wait for you to listen and get as enthused about it as she is.

In this episode, we discuss:

  • Her definition of rewilding and wildcraft
  • Her journey with Herbalism
  • Her experiences with different plants and why she prefers to spend a long time with one plant rather than rushing
  • Her earliest memory of nature and her love of the outdoors
  • What being creative means to her
  • How she overcomes creative blocks
  • How new motherhood has affected her creativity and productivity
  • The importance of patience and gratitude
  • Teachings from her Aikido training
  • You can find Ebony’s offerings in her Etsy shop https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/NettlesandBees and she showcasing her products and shares her wisdom on her Instagram page @nettleandbees and on Facebook www.facebook.com/nettles-and-bees
