Watch this episode on Youtube!

Tara Lanich-LaBrie has been growing, foraging, and creating food and medicine in relationship with the plants for more than 20 years. She is a forever student of the plant realms and loves to share what she is learning through the lens of food. Tara creates colorful, gluten, dairy, and refined sugar-free food that are plant-focused with the intention that it gets people curious about the plants and how we can protect them. 

Tara believes that food is fundamental to our human community, weaving together what our ancestors knew was beyond survival; it is essential to our emotional, physical, and spiritual health. That food is integral to our reciprocal relationship with the land, people, and the many beings that inhabit our planet. Tara shares recipes, and teaches with the plants through her consciously created business The Medicine Circle, and through her Patreon @themedicinecircle.
