Who I am & WHy I do this…

Hello friends!

My name is Cameron Strouss and I am a Clinical/Functional Herbalist, Registered Herbalist with the American Herbalist Guild, Certified Aromatherapist, Master Gardener, medicine maker extraordinaire, forager of 14 years and clinician of 9 years. (If you want my extended nerdy credentials click here.)

Whenever I take steps back into a place of quiet inquiry I am always quickly lead back to the deep nourishment of wild foods and herbal medicines, foraging, ancestral food/medicine ways, and the utter joy and sense of rightness that foraging brings me. I (and if I am allowed we) so often feel lost, alone, out of place and time, lacking deep connection with self, place, and community.

Little else in my life brings me such clarity - and so quickly - as spending an hour collecting food or medicine, with friends in woods, gardens, parks, and neighborhoods. It scratches this human-animal itch that is much like the ache of scratching poison ivy. It is the most satisfying feeling I can express.

It somehow simplifies and distills the great questions of life with ease into Zen like answers are far beyond my meditation practice. 🤣


Who are we? Part of this great ecosystem.

Where do we belong? Right here.

Why are we here? To live beautifully, peacefully, and interconnectedly, in free abundance. Taken care of by our ecosystems and communities.


If you want to experience the above with me then check out the education programs I offer!



THe mission

I am driven to facilitate a deep sense of place and personal empowerment by teaching people how to connect to plants and the land. These connections anchor and remind us of our humanness, our lost culture, our part in a wider ecosystem and our need for deep roots culturally, spiritually, and universally.


The Vision

My hands-on herbal educational programs draw upon multiple facets of the rich tapestry of botanical knowledge: traditional use, instinct & intuition, medical sciences, research studies and clinical experience. I am committed to building an intentional and inclusive atmosphere where our students can cultivate a well-rounded education that reconnects them with the natural world. The programs are part of a cultural shift towards greater connection, community, and inter-reliance upon one another and our environment, as well as a focus on preventative healthcare - one that emphasizes individual agency and family health advocacy.
