The Elder Tree Educational Medicine Garden is located in Mullumbimby, at the Mullum Gardens Eco-Hub alongside other powerful earth warriors and change makers such as Reforest Now, The Mullumbimby Community Gardens, The Men’s Shed, The Mullum Food Coop, and other powerful individuals and visionaries inspired to grow together and educate about growing sustainable food and medicine.

At The Elder Tree Educational Medicine Garden, we hold regular classes, courses, workshops and events and the medicine garden is an educational garden for students and practitioners. The medicine from the garden goes to volunteers and surplus will be gifted to those in need/sold at a low cost for fundraising.
The garden is a space to cultivate and evolve deep connection to and understanding of herbs. It is a small living library that will eventually become a botanical garden once we are on a larger patch of land.

We are so excited to be doing our part in building community resilience and coherence and connection.

The Elder Tree is a registered not for profit (charity) and we welcome financial contributions. If you would like to make a tax-deductible donation, please let us know!

A big gratitude shoutout to our wonderful treasurer Caterina Miano, who had been one of the most consistently hard-working and present volunteers in The Elder Tree space since she started her role 10 months ago. She does a lot of the bookkeeping work that most of us don't have the interest or the skills for, and she does it with a smile.

She shows up to every event and a lot of the working bees, she's attentive and always brings a great attitude to her work.

We love having her in The Elder Tree family. We really rely on having solid crew like this to make our dreams come to life...

Thanks Cat, we love you!

Exciting news! In this episode, Tatiana welcomes Cat Green from Everyday Empowered and Herbfest to become a co-host of the Herbal Education Segment. It seems only fitting as Cat has already been on the podcast 6 times! This episode is pretty much a herbally infused bundle of giggles so make sure you are in the right frame of mind to receive the transmission of silliness. There is a lot of wonderful info on herbs and stories shared in amongst the laughter, and there is a prize at the end. We are overjoyed to be having Cat formally join The Elder Tree Podcast family and bringing her wisdom and unique flavour to the melting pot.

We are now a team of 8 on the podcast- 6 presenters and 2 helpers. It is a big job bringing this offering through to the Australian Community and we do it with all the love in our hearts. If you come along to Herbfest on Sunshine Coast on 14th June, you will get to meet a lot of the crew there... come visit our stall and see Tatiana on a panel.

Cat is a home herbalist and grassroots community herbal organiser and educator. She's passionate about making it easy -and normal - for people to make simple, effective herbal remedies at home. She believes home herbalism is all about reclaiming our capacity to care for ourselves and our families, as well as reconnecting more deeply with the earth. Through Everyday Empowered, she offers a wide range of practical ways for people to learn about herbs - HerbFest, monthly workshops through the Herb Folk group, DIY Herbal Remedy Kits and online courses in collaboration with Heidi Merika (for more about Heidi Merika check out interview #9).

🌳Would you be interested in volunteering for The Elder Tree?
🌳We are looking for rad new team leaders to help us make a difference in the herbal medicine education realms. (We are creating Australia's only grassroots herbal medicine school with residential facilities!)
🌳Must be trustworthy, reliable, a good communicator and show initiative/be proactive
🌳Role involves 2-4 hours per week managing a small team and attending monthly online or in person meetings. Can be done remotely. All training provided.
🌳Please get in touch to find out more: info@theeldertree.org

We also have other roles available that are not management positions- where you can volunteer for 2 hours per week on certain tasks. Just get in touch to find out what kind of roles we have available in our beautiful growing family of passionate herbies!

-------------------------------------------------------------
🌳More about the management roles 🌳
The Elder Tree is forming our OPERATIONS COMMITTEE which consists of managers of teams. We currently have 5 teams:

1. FUNDING /RESOURCES: Grant writing/major donors/sponsors/manages resources/ manages all donations

2. COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT: Info stalls/marketing/social media/newsletter etc)

3. PODCAST: Trove/social media/newsletter/promotions

4. MEMBER MANAGEMENT: Takes care of sign up process/monitoring members/monitoring payments/updating website/promotions. Also oversees volunteers in various departments

5. EDUCATIONAL MEDICINE GARDEN: The crew caring for our beautiful patch of Earth in Mullumbimby

The two management roles to be filled are the "Member Management" team manager role and the "Community Engagement" team manager role.

These two roles are very important for the thriving of The Elder Tree mission! A big part of your role would be onboarding new volunteers to your team, assign them their tasks and monitor their progress. You would need to also attend a monthly Operations Committee team meeting with the other managers to chat about how each other is going with their teams.

It is important that you have a positive outlook and love working with people and be available consistently on a weekly basis to maintain flow. Ideally 2hours, 2 days per week would be great! Get in touch to find out more and learn if this is a good fit for you.

With love,
Tatiana

Sevensong⁠ is an American clinical herbalist, teacher, botanist and naturalist with over 40 years of experience in herbal medicine in USA. He is the founder and director of the Northeast School of Botanical Medicine and the Director of Holistic Medicine at the ⁠Ithaca Free Clinic⁠. His work focuses on practical, experience-based herbalism, integrating clinical care, plant identification, and medicine making to support accessible community healthcare. Known for his grounded and practical approach, 7Song has spent decades helping people access herbal medicine in real-world settings.

Listen to episode on The The Elder Tree Podcast here:
https://open.spotify.com/episode/2WJeGKnacyaWoMLXXEQluv?si=GG9PhHTlQlqXaGBfniuLRg

In this episode, 7song shares the beginnings of his herbal journey being involved in social justice and activism, and wanting to make change. 7song learnt with Christopher Hobbs, Micheal Moore and other incredible minds, and went on to make his own school. 7song shares about what is often missing in the herbal education space in USA- mentorship and one on one apprenticeships. Through his school, this is something that he offers.There are two schools that offer herbal degrees, but as 7song shares, it can be difficult to make a decent income from being just a practitioner, and the better income opportunities are to be found in education. There is a lot more covered in this interview, you will jst have to listen to hear about it!There are some big changes coming with 7song preparing to close down his school, and change focus.

One of his amazing evolving current offerings is the Herbal Database which is an incredible free resource well worth checking out- see links in the shownotes below. 7song is a very generous teacher who has given a phenomenal amount of free resources online and runs many free classes.

A wonderful walkabout site meeting today with representatives of each community group. We got to walk around the site and hear each other's dreams visions and actions and deepen the collective bond of this beautiful community space that we co-inhabit.

We got to hear stories and challenges and victories. It made me (Tatiana) feel proud to be having our The Elder Tree project being woven into such a rich space with all the skills and strengths and wisdom of this space.

There was:
🌼Oriel and Andy from Mullum Food Co-op

🌼Larimar, Ben and Will from Mullumbimby Community Garden

🌼Tommy, Rachel and Simon from Seed Northern Rivers

🌼James from ReForest Now

🌼Ned from Mullumbimby Men's Shed

We also had Caress along for the ride, as a special kind of glue for the day.

Excited to keep weaving and collaborating in beautiful synergy with this collective.
