Hi everyone. I’m so excited for this episode’s guest! Her name is  Amanda Furbee, owner of the Herb Shoppe on Mississippi and Portland, Oregon. In this episode, Amanda and I will talk plants, formulating, our approaches to medicinal values, and the amazing way that Amanada found herself on an unexpected Herbalist’s Path that carried her from one coast to the other, eventually taking up the charge of the Herb Shoppe, which is more than just a store, but rather an institution with rich history (it was the first place I studied under the previous owner!). So I hope you enjoy this super fun conversation.At  the Herb Shoppe she & her team are dedicated to providing quality herbal medicine to their community. Not only do they offer bulk herbs & custom blends, but also offer educational opportunities (including their “Make Your Own" Series & internships) and practitioner services.
