It's been ten years since this post and I'm seeking the same!! I'm looking for a community to join for continued learning and growing with herbal plant allies. I became a Certified Herbalist in 2020 and continue to look for more ways to work with the earth and share this knowledge and love of plants and all things nature with like minded others. I lead with my heart and looking for others who do the same. We belong in community living as simply as possible with nature and her seasons and I feel it's time to find my tribe.
Interested in continued learning, Apprenticeship, live on land hands on opportunities to grow in community.
Love to connect and grow with you!

Greetings,
I am from China and focus on ecological cultivation of traditional Chinese medicinal plants, as well as field investigations and documentation of wild herbal resources. My work often involves observing native plant populations, habitat conditions, seed propagation, and sustainable cultivation practices.
I was inspired by your experience in seed saving, restoration, and traditional ecological knowledge. Although we come from different regions, I believe we share a similar interest in protecting plant diversity and learning from nature.
I am new to this platform and would be happy to exchange ideas, experiences, and observations with you. I look forward to learning more about your work and sharing perspectives from China.
Wishing you a meaningful journey and hoping we can stay connected.

Finding a live-in mentor is tough. Have you tried reaching out to local farm collectives? They often have connections that aren't advertised online.
