Hi! I'm April! 

I am glad you are here! 

For nearly 30 years, I've been learning from the plants as a botanist, herbalist, and teacher. My journey began in high school, when I first started working with herbs and learning the Latin names of plants in a horticulture class. I had no idea then that the plants would become my life's work.

That path led me to earn my Master of Science with an emphasis in Botany and to spend years with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the U.S. Forest Service protecting rare and endangered plants. At home, the plants became our family's first medicine, helping us heal and stay well through the seasons of life.

Today, I've guided thousands of students as they reconnect with the land, learn the language of the plants, and make their own wild herbal medicine from what grows right outside their door.

Learn Herbalism from the Land, not from the Jar

 

At Wild Herb Academy, we believe herbalism is more than memorizing herbs and their uses.

It's about developing a relationship with plants. It's about observing where they grow, understanding their characteristics, learning their stories, and respecting the traditional knowledge that has been passed down through generations.

Backyard Pharmacy is a place to begin that journey.

YES, I WANT IN!
