Ash is a west coast born, desert-dwelling ethnobotanist, educator, writer, multi-disciplinary animist, and poet in disguise as herbalist. For twenty years and counting, Ash continues to reverently devote her life to fungal & botanical studies, encompassing traditional, academic, clinical, and directly relational terrains. Her approach places emphasis on plants, fungi, and planet as relations, and is manifested through her practice as fostering engagement with & as the living world, rather than "using" plants as commodity. She counsels & creates in her private practice, Black Sage Botanicals. In this episode we discuss the Solanaceae plant family, her herbal origins, what a psychonaut is, making herbal candy and a whole lot more. THIS PODCAST IS MEANT FOR EDUCATIONAL AND ENTERTAINMENT PURPOSES ONLY! I had a great time chatting it up with Ash and getting to know her story.  LINKS & RESOURCES Black Sage Botanicals | BlackSageBotanicals.org Ash's products | LEARN MORE Ash on Instagram | @black.sage.botanicals Charles "Doc" Garcia | LEARN MORE   🌼WANT MORE HERBAL GOODNESS?
