Herbal Education
Curious about herbalism and medicinal plants?
As an herbalist, educator, gardener and California Naturalist, I’m all about hands on, interactive learning. Kids aren’t the only ones who want to have fun! With 14 years of education experience, I love sharing the wonders of herbal medicine and nature with curious learners in an accessible, engaging way.
I offer herbal education in the San Francisco Bay Area. Reach out to organize a walk, workshop, virtual offering or pop-up!

Everyday Botany
Great for adults, youth and non-science folks! Emphasis on edible, native and medicinal plants with a lens to queer and decolonize how we learn about and discuss nature
“I left this experience feeling like our family had come into a new relationship with the land that surrounds us - one where we feel a greater degree of humility, curiosity, and intentionality in how we engage with many growing things...
I couldn’t wait to start making dandelion root tea, and to garnish future soups with the onion flowers that grow wild on our own hillside. The children can’t wait for our next herb walk with Tessa, now that we all know how much more there is to learn.”
