Kathryn Solie is an herbalist specializing in ‘poisonous’ plants & plant consciousness, a tarot reader, and a meditation enthusiast. She works to create community where people can reconnect with the ancient human lineage of plant spirit communication. She gives voice to the almost forgotten medicine of ‘poisonous’ plants through her courses and other offerings.

We are thrilled to share that on the 29th of December, Kathryn is hosting a workshop with Earth Speak, all about Poison Plant Speak! In this workshop, you’ll be introduced to working with poisonous plants through plant spirit communication as they guide you to your whole, true self. This is a skill that everybody can develop! You do not need any prior experience with spiritual work, witchcraft, or herbalism - all levels of experience are welcome.
