This podcast episode is a combination of two plant profiles from a pre-recorded garden plant walk with clinical herbalist, field botanist, and nutrition educator, Shana Lipner Grover. Shana introduces us to two common and abundant garden plants: oregano and St. John’s wort. Shana teaches us how we can make functional medicine from the culinary and medicinal herbs that grow so easily outside our front (or back) doors.

Shana Lipner Grover was a student of award-winning author Michael Moore and also one of Mountain Rose Herbs' favorite herbalists, Howie Brounstein. Today, she is the director and primary educator of Sage Country Herbs School of Botanical Studies in San Diego, CA.

You can learn more about Shana at Sage Country Herbs School and by visiting her on Instagram @sagecountryherbs.
