Herban Cura is a healing justice herb and ecology school that creates learning opportunities to restore relationships to land, memory, and cultural lifeways.
As a collective, we work together to organize mutual aid initiatives that center low-income and immigrant communities, create opportunities for our community to access ancestral wisdom through virtual knowledge shares and in-person immersions, bridge the relationship between rural and urban spaces by reskilling our ecosystem, and steward a thriving farm that seeks to resource our BIPOC and LGBTIQIA+ kin.
