It is our ancestral inheritance to know and work with the plants growing around us. Tending to, nurturing, and gleaning nourishment and medicine from the land is a way of life that is available to us all, and is the most direct path to healing people and ecosystems alike. Let us remember.

IN THE INTRO:

• Self and community sufficiency, wild foods, & plant friends

IN THE INTERVIEW:

• The moment you realize that you can interact with the plants around you (and how odd it is that that’s surprising to modern humans)
• How plants helped Rosalee overcome a terminal and “incurable” autoimmune disease
• How her doctor reacted when she showed back up after curing herself
• The many ways to be an herbalist
• The best way to take herbal medicine isn’t as a tea or tincture, it’s to bring plants into your life
• Living deeply with the seasons (no matter where you live)
• Conscious stewardship of the land as an act of community healing
• Reciprocity and the many ways mindful, informed wildcrafting can support plants and ecosystems
• Violets! and incorporating story medicine into our medicine making
• Chickweed! delicious, nutritious pesto, vinegar, and more
• Foraging makes it so easy to get a much needed diversity of phytonutrients into our bodies
• Expanding our lens to the wider ecological relationships the plants we are working with are a part of
• Other ways to bring plants into your life when foraging isn’t possible or of interest
• What if everyone wildcrafted?
• We cannot buy ourselves into wellness, but we can nature ourselves there

IN THE OUTRO:

• A genius way to freeze pesto (it’s not the ice cube tray method)
