About Us

Plant & Forage Health

Plant & Forage Health offers an approach to wellness that combines food and herb consultation along with holistic care and small batch herbal remedies. The practice is founded on the belief that true healing requires addressing the root cause of illness rather than just managing symptoms; utilizing the body's ability to restore balance through natural, non-toxic solutions.

Over the past decade, we have empowered clients to achieve their health goals by offering herbal suggestions, classes and lifestyle recommendations as well as therapeutic bodywork to reduce stress and pain. The approach is personalized, beginning with a comprehensive assessment of your physical, mental, and nutritional health to create a treatment plan designed exclusively for you.

We are committed to educating and partnering with you to cultivate long-term vitality, helping you transition from simply managing symptoms to achieving vibrant, holistic health.

The Mission

What Are Herbal Remedies?

For centuries, food and herbs have been foundational to health and wellness. Derived from plants, leaves, bark, roots, seeds, or flowers, herbal remedies are natural, botanical compounds used for medicinal purposes. As a cornerstone of complementary and alternative medicine, these products are used to boost immunity, increase energy, support weight loss, enhance mood, or improve sleep, with a strong focus on prevention. While these remedies are natural, it is always recommended to inform your primary healthcare provider to avoid potential contraindications.

Reviews

"Marina gave me food and herb suggestions that I simply added to my diet to address inflammation and pain. Along with adjusting a few daily habits to tackle stress, I now have more energy and can get thru the day without hurting."

"I religiously check in with Marina to see what new products she has to offer. The tea blends along with the red and green capsules have helped me maintain my daily intake of fruits and vegetables! Both of these products I attribute to why I no longer get sick during the heavy cold and flu season."
