About
In medieval times, the hortus conclusus was an enclosed garden where flowers, food plants and medicinal herbs were cultivated.
Similar to a library, it was found in monasteries or cloisters, and served as a repository of knowledge, as well as a place of refuge for people, plants and wild creatures.
On my website, you will find resources about:
-
medicinal herbs and community gardens
-
the nature activities I facilitate
-
my journey with plant medicine and green care

I hope they will inspire you.
My goal as a writer and healer is to help repair the relationship between humanity and nature.
