Tatum Andrews and her husband took on the role of caretakers for what is now called Bear Roots Forest during a deeply challenging period in their lives. Little did they know, the land they chose for their farming journey was also in need of healing. Through dedication, a touch of magic, and the innate wisdom of nature, both the stewards and the land have started to heal and transform together.

In this workshop, Tatum will share how the land has deepened her connection to plants, how it has offered her a way to honor her grief and provided a space to grow as a herbalist, teacher, and herb cultivator through countless lessons. She will discuss some of the plants that are growing at Bear Roots Forest and how they provide healing to others through plant medicine and a connection with nature.
