Introduction	Sheron lives life as a student of all things. Her first lessons in herbal healing were from her father’s mother. A widow, she raised seven boys all alone, surviving the Depression. She healed her boys and a large herd of dairy cows using herbs and grit. The folk remedies were the first line and often only defense against illness. Taking the generational teachings, Sheron reached back into study of early herbalists such as Dioscorides, Culpeper, and Hildegard of Bingen. Back to a time when a world was healed only by herbs and ritual. Learning from many different cultures and times, she verifies with modern studies for Commission E and current scientific research. This blend of wisdom seems right and wise. From this synthesis she creates her products. First formulated in the 1980’s, the products have a faithful following from years of being sold from a table at many Farmers’ Markets and local craft shows. Sheron has gardened and taught on three continents and has plans for several more. Her writings can be found in publications such as The Herb Companion and Mother Earth News. A book that is her love story to herbs and gardening will be published in 2024.
