I have 8 years of informal, curiosity-driven, community-sourced, experimental learning and experience in the Netherlands, South Africa and France. I ran a compost business, began a "street food" garden, and currently volunteer at a community permaculture garden and lead an 'echte buiten Buitenschoolse Opvang (BSO)' club for primary school children, called De Heksjes.
Over the years, I've done countless workshops, but when I met Lynn Shore in 2022, I was immediately drawn to become her apprentice and properly join the herbology community in Amsterdam.
My emerging herbology practice integrates my work as a birth doula, a gardener, a cook, a craft-maker, a mother, a volunteer, an event organiser and an interdisciplinary social scientist. I am especially interested in recalling adults to the wild and instilling in young children a deep and gentle familiarity with the natural world.
