Explore the Appalachians from your couch, and learn how to empower yourself with your own free and vital wild food and medicine!
Join botanist, herbalist and professional forager, Abby Artemisia, to meander through the abundance of wild food and medicine that can be foraged in the late summer/early fall.
Abby believes nature education is so important, especially information on wild edible and medicinal plants, to help us survive in these tough times. That's why she adapted her plant walks to a virtual format, to help you continue to thrive whether you're far away or COVID is keeping you away from group activities.
This plant walk, in the gorgeous Blue Ridge mountains of North Carolina, features plants that you'll find throughout much of the central and eastern US. Plants included: Sourwood, Sassafras, Witch Hazel, Black Birch, Hemlock tree, Blackberry, Ragwort, Violet, and Mountain Mint. For a special treat, the following mushrooms are included, too: a variety of Chanterelles and Leatherback Milkcaps.
Abby teaches you how to harvest the plants and mushrooms, including tips for a sustainable harvest. She tells you about making formulas like teas, tinctures, salves, syrups, and spices, for conditions including coughs, pain, viruses, skin irritation, stagnation, and more. She teaches the Family Method of Identification, giving you patterns to make it easier for you to start to recognize plants and how they're related.
You'll get a private link to the video that you can access anytime and as often as you want but please don't share the link - as we offer SO MUCH free education already and every purchase is important to our small business.
You can even email Abby about the virtual plant walk with your thoughts and questions!

This tincture includes 4 species of ethically, sustainably, and lovingly wildcrafted Appalachian mushrooms. I made it as a dual extraction. Because mushrooms have alcohol and water soluble components, I tincture them in organic gluten free cane alcohol first and then a long tea extraction (decoction).
Wild mushrooms are being shown to be super anticarcinogenic, preventing and fighting cancer. They are also said to be immunimodulating, taking the immune system from where it is to where it needs to be.
2 ounces
I take one 1/2 dropperful twice a day for immune system maintenance, and several times per day when I'm starting to feel sick. I also take a day of two off every couple weeks or switch with other mushrooms.

Only a few left!
This is a hot sauce and a tonic rolled into one! With a mild kick, the hot peppers, ginger, toothwort, and hawthorn are good for getting the circulation going. Toothwort is a native wild herb in the mustard family. The root is often substituted for horseradish, with similar taste and herbal qualities.
The turmeric and ginger support the anti-inflammatory response throughout the body. Burdock helps tonify the liver and signal to the body that it's time to get the digestive juices flowing. All the herbs support the immune system all year long, but can help burn out the winter crud, too.
Everything is infused in apple cider vinegar, an all-around health tonic.
Locally grown hot peppers, ginger, and turmeric. Ethically foraged toothwort, hawthorn and burdock.
I love hot sauce, and put a few dashes of this tonic on just about everything I eat!

Trust me, you want this feel-good tonic.
I like to call this my “Happy Juice”. The powder puff pink blossoms, twigs, and leaves of the mimosa tree, called the, “Tree of Happiness,” in Chinese medicine, are combined with hawthorn berries, St. John’s wort, and lemon balm for this delightful tincture.
Hawthorn berries have been known to be a heart tonic for the physical and emotional heart. St. John’s wort and lemon balm have appeared in uplifting, anti-depressive formulas throughout the ages. I take a half dropperful of this mix whenever I feel the need.
*Not recommended for people who are taking pharmaceutical medication (including birth control), or those with bipolar/mania symptoms.
INGREDIENTS: Alcohol, Water, Mimosa, St. John's Wort, Hawthorn, Lemon Balm.

Add a touch of wild to any savory dish.
"Wild Oregano" is another name for bee balm, a more delicious wild substitute. It's antiseptic, too, with more thymol than thyme. REAL salt is harvested from the salt flats of Utah. This salt is amazing on anything you'd love oregano and salt on, from Italian food to popcorn!
INGREDIENTS: Real Salt, Wildcrafted Bee Balm.
