Come Gather with Me - An Invitation to Forage and Gather

Dear Friend,

Welcome. I am so grateful you’re here.

This is the beginning of something special — a journey we will walk together, step by step. Forage & Gather is not just a book. It is a gathering place. A place where wisdom, stories, and sacred nourishment meet. A place where you are always welcome.

In this first post, I want to share what this book is, what it means to me, and why I felt called to write it. I want you to know the heartbeat behind these words — because you are a part of it.

About This Book:

Forage & Gather

This is a book about remembering.

Remembering how to nourish ourselves with real, living food.

Remembering how to root our lives in nature, in rhythm, in ritual.

Remembering that wellness is not a luxury — it is a birthright.

Forage & Gather is a journey of reawakening, blending the timeless wisdom of herbalism with the best of functional medicine. It is part memoir, part field guide, part blessing bowl — a spiral, not a straight line.

In these pages, you will find stories of healing and resilience, practical recipes, sacred rituals, and the quiet magic of a life well-tended. You will learn how to strengthen your body with whole foods, soothe your spirit with gentle herbs, and bring balance to your days through mindful living.

This is not a book about choosing one way or the other. It is about creating a life with room for all the ways of knowing — herbalism, functional nutrition, mindfulness, and even the best of conventional care when it is needed.
