Hi, I'M April.
A Voice for the Plants
For 28 years, I’ve walked this path—learning, listening, and tending the ancient connection between people and plants. I am a bridge between their wisdom and those who are ready to remember.
Every plant holds medicine. Every plant offers a gift. When you open yourself to this truth, your relationship with the Earth begins to transform—and herbal medicine becomes more than a remedy. It becomes a way of life.
I’m here to guide you—to share what I’ve gathered over decades of wildcrafting, teaching, and healing. My deepest calling is to help you remember your own power as a healer, as a caretaker of this sacred knowledge.
And I would be honored to walk this path beside you.
Through April’s teachings, I’ve gained the confidence to create infusions, teas, and liniments that have truly benefited my family. Working in the medical, biotech, and pharmaceutical field, I’m acutely aware of the toxic side effects of many medications. It has been a profound relief to turn to ancient herbal medicine as a natural, effective alternative."

"I’ve always felt a deep connection to plants—like they’ve been calling me back from the past. That connection has only grown stronger through April’s courses, and I am forever grateful. Since learning this wisdom, I’ve helped my mom clear infections with goldenrod before she even saw her doctor. I’ve used rosemary tincture and goldenrod tea to help regulate our blood pressure. My calendula salve has healed my mom’s dog’s rashes—and even works wonders for my skin. I even made a hair growth oil for my family and it is working!"Through April’s teachings, I’ve gained the confidence to create infusions, teas, and liniments that have truly benefited my family.
