About my Guest:

For Lauren, the study of Gemmotherapy has been more than a career—it has been a lifelong

journey, full of discovery, adventure, and purpose. It has taken her across continents, introduced

her to extraordinary people, and allowed her to coach hundreds of families and practitioners in

both Europe and the U.S. Every time she thinks her work with Gemmotherapy has reached its

conclusion, a new chapter unfolds. The latest? The cultivation of the Gemmo Forest. What

began as an intended hands-on classroom to teach Gemmotherapy has grown into something

larger—a plant and tree nursery, educational outreach programs, and a grassroots initiative

encouraging neighborhoods to replace their lawns with herb and vegetable gardens.

Lauren’s life now follows the rhythm of the land. From spring through fall, she can be found

outdoors, hands in the dirt, working alongside her husband, Joachim, to tend both the Gemmo

Forest and their 7,500-square-foot family garden. Summers bring the joy of an annual family

farm camp when all three of their adult children return home to help harvest. Lauren especially

cherishes this time with her granddaughter, Rowan, fostering in her the spirit of reciprocity with

nature. When the cold sets in and the fields rest, Lauren returns indoors, where she rekindles

her love of writing by the wood stove, always with her calico, Ruby, curled close by.
