What the Plant Walks Are

A slow walk in the woods, with a lot of stopping to look at things

Once a month, I head out to Moss Rock Nature Preserve with anyone who wants to come along. We walk the trails and talk about the medicines of the season: what's growing right now, how to recognize it, and what it's actually good for.

It's part foraging, part herbal medicine, and part me getting genuinely excited about plants most people walk right past. Fair warning: I will stop mid-trail to show you something growing next to a rock.

What You'll Experience

An hour and a half with the plants of the season

Learn to identify seasonal plants

Right where they grow, not from a blurry photo online.

Hear what each plant is good for

Drawing on research, folk tradition, and what I've seen in clinical practice.

Take something practical home

How you'd actually use these plants once you're back in your own kitchen.

Ask all your questions

Beginners and the plant-curious are welcome. I love the questions.

Hello friends! I'm Cameron Strouss, a Clinical/Functional Herbalist registered with the American Herbalist Guild, Certified Aromatherapist, and Master Gardener. With 14 years of foraging experience, a B.S. in Biology, and 9 years of clinical practice, I'm dedicated to the deep nourishment of wild foods and herbal medicines, reconnecting with ancestral food and medicine traditions. Foraging is where I find joy, purpose, and a profound sense of belonging.

I'm on a mission to simplify herbal and functional medicine, empowering you to treat everyday illness with ease and confidence. Herbal Medicine & Foraging have given me freedom to heal and connect to nature on a deep level... And I'm passionate about providing you with the same opportunities, while also providing a scientific background and approach.聽
