In our very first episode of Herbalists After Hours, we hang out in a forest with jim mcdonald for a wide-ranging conversation about the virtues of herbalists, how a near-death experience affected his life, and why herbalism falls flat when we force it into tidy binaries.

jim mcdonald is a Michigan-based herbalist known for his creative energetics approach to plant medicine. He teaches widely respected classes online and in person, with a nuanced style that blends sharp witty insight, lived experience, and always a respect for complexity.
