Community Supported Herbalism Project

Support Local Wellness: The Community Supported Herbalism (CSH) Project

Welcome!

Thank you for stopping by. If you know me, you know that herbalism is one my greatest current passions. I have spent the last year immersing myself in plant medicine and have successfully completed 250 hours of herbal education.

Now, I am ready to take the next step. To deepen my clinical skills and better serve the community, I am enrolling in an advanced herbalism program. Because advanced education is a major financial investment, I am launching a Community Supported Herbalism (CSH) initiative to help fund my tuition through mutual aid and shared abundance.

How It Works

Think of this like a veggie box subscription, but for handmade, small-batch plant remedies.

My goal is to find 10 community members who can commit to a $30 monthly sponsorship. In return for your investment in my education, you will receive a seasonal share of the medicine I create. (If you live outside of Halifax, I may be able to arrange drop off in Enfield/Stewiacke/Brookfield/Truro. If you live further afield in Canada, I can ship three months worth of gifts for $110 - 3x$30 and $20 for Canada Post, this is the most cost effective way as shipping is getting expensive).

What You Receive Each Season

Every month, you will get a curated bundle of 2 to 4 seasonal, handmade, small-batch herbal products crafted right here in Halifax. Depending on the time of year, your bundle may include:

• Extracts: Tinctures, glycerites, and flower essences.

• Topicals: Nourishing salves and infused herbal oils.

• Kitchen Remedies: Custom loose-leaf teas, herbal salts, and infused vinegars.

Our Shared Footprint

Every single product I make is deeply tied to our local ecosystem. I strictly source plant ingredients from three categories:

• Homegrown: Planted, tended, and harvested by my own hands. 

• Wildcrafted: Responsibly and ethically foraged around Nova Scotia.

• Organic: Sourced from trusted organic suppliers when I cannot grow or forage them.

Deepen Your Knowledge

Along with your physical products, you will receive a monthly newsletter. This isn't a marketing email. It is an educational guide packed with:

• In-depth profiles of the herbs we are using.

• Tips, tricks, and traditional uses for the remedies of the month.

• Plant trivia and historical folklore.

• Practical holistic health tips for the season.

Join the Journey

By joining this CSH, you aren't just buying products—you are directly investing in a local practitioner. Your $30 monthly contribution goes straight toward my tuition fees. In return, I get to keep you well-stocked with clean, conscious, small-batch herbal products.

Space is limited to 10-12 shares for this first month so I can focus on high-quality, artisanal production. If there is more interest I will be able to scale up in future months.
