There is much to be done in this time, but always there is work to be done…always the world is both beautiful & troubling. Always there is peace & war somewhere in the world, a battle being fought either within us or without. Together we are a mighty force, and together we can weather these storms…

The sting? It’s part of her medicine. And yes, it disappears when she’s dried, brewed, or steamed.

A cup of nettle tea or a bowl of tender greens is pure, earthy goodness. Your body will thank you.
Though sometimes dismissed as a weed or overlooked by science, Nettle shows up again and again in herbal lore—and in nearly every herb book on my shelves.

She’s a plant of resilience, vitality, and deep nourishment.
Nettle. 🌿

A beloved favorite among herbalists. Rich in vitamins and minerals. Celebrated in kitchens and healing traditions for centuries.

She may sting, but once you know her, she softens.
What herb is tasty, healing, cloth-making, found across the globe… and has the personality of a spirited menopausal woman—nourishing and generous, but a bit prickly if you don’t treat her right?
Sometimes all it takes is a breath… a whisper of encouragement… and a bit of trust in the wind.

Take the Herbal Pathfinder quiz to discover your unique herbal archetype—and meet a plant ally who’s ready to walk beside you.

Have you ever wondered what kind of herbalist you are—deep down in your roots?

We created a little quiz to help you find your unique herbal archetype, along with a plant ally who’s walking right beside you. It’s like receiving a gentle nudge from the green world saying, “𝘠𝘦𝘴, 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘪𝘴 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘱𝘢𝘵𝘩.”
This course means a great deal to me. I hope it meets you where you are.
Use code ROSEMARY to save $50.
May we walk these sacred thresholds with courage and care. 💚

Whether you’re supporting someone in their final days, walking through loss, or preparing for your own transition—this course offers presence, comfort, and healing.
It’s the kind of learning we all need, sooner or later.

Now, Emily—together with a circle of wise and compassionate herbalists—has created a course on End of Life Care.
It’s full of practical tools, yes. But more than that, it teaches us how to be with death—with loved ones, with ourselves, with grief.

3/5
Emily helped guide us through those final moments—not just with practical wisdom, but with grace, reverence, and deep humanity.
She helped create the peace that allowed my mother’s final breath to be an honoring of her long, beautiful life.

2/5
When my beloved mother passed, it was one of the most tender and sacred moments of my life. 🌿
We were surrounded by love, by care, and by presence.
Among those holding space was herbalist Emily Ruff.

“Your heart and my heart are very, very old friends.”
― often attributed to Hafiz

Remember to spend time with the trees and plants today…they are wise, ancient beings and offer so much to us.

Talking to plants is one way of talking directly to Spirit. - Rosemary

Now, more than ever, we need to lean in toward the light.

Look to the plants…build community, walk with compassion and love, stand strong like an Oak.
In challenging times, it is so important to find joy where we can. Keeping our joy levels up helps build resilience and strength to face difficulties. The Elder shows us the way as she stands guard protecting our gardens. 💚

What small thing can you find joy in today?
