I am a passionate visionary dedicated to merging sustainability, wellness, and education into a harmonious way of life. As the founder of Healing Tide, an eco-wellness and eco-experience non-profit, I am committed to fostering the interconnection of health and the environment. I lead transformative initiatives that inspire individuals and communities to engage deeply with nature, practice sustainable living, and embrace holistic well-being.

 

With over 30 years of experience in teaching and leadership, my expertise spans permaculture, natural building, and functional medicine-based community healthcare. 

 

My commitment to sustainability permeates every aspect of my life and work. I envision a future where access to healthy food, herbal medicine, education, and nature fosters transformation on both personal and community levels. Through Healing Tide, I offer immersive, hands-on classes in breathtaking, eco-rich locations, custom group experiences, and one-on-one wellness coaching. Our work is grounded in honoring the lands we inhabit and fostering collaboration with local tribes.

 

If you are a professional teacher or expert in natural building, permaculture, or farm-to-fork cuisine, ready to change your life and co-create an educational Regenerative Farm Healing Retreat Institution, I invite you to connect. Together, we can leave a lasting legacy of sustainable living and holistic healing for future generations.

 

More about the Regenerative Farm Educational Retreat Center:

Our center is committed to holistic wellness, sustainability, and the profound interconnection between health and the environment. We offer immersive, hands-on learning experiences that seamlessly blend natural building, permaculture, farm-to-fork culinary arts, herbal medicine, and sacred animal stewardship. By uniting environmental sustainability, personal health, and education, the Regenerative Farm Healing Retreat Center (Haven of Harmony) stands as a pioneering educational institution, drawing inspiration from renowned spaces like the Esalen Institute and Lost Valley Educational Center.

 

Our educational tracts are designed to run simultaneously, fostering a dynamic learning environment:

 

• Teaching Kitchen: Beyond farm-to-table, our kitchen curriculum is rooted in the "Nourishing Traditions" model by Sally Fallon of the Weston A. Price Foundation. We emphasize gluten-free, paleo, and Autoimmune Protocol Diet approaches, teaching the art of nutrition through ancestral wisdom.

• Teaching Permaculture Farm & Food Forest: We integrate the best practices of permaculture standards and ethics, honoring the indigenous roots of permaculture. Our curriculum includes biodynamic and bio-intensive agricultural practices, four-season growing techniques, and the cultivation of orchards and vegetable crops, utilizing greenhouses and a solarium for year-round food production.

• Teaching Ranch & Animal Stewardship Tract: Grounded in Joel Salatin's Polyface Farming techniques, our program emphasizes ethical and sacred animal harvesting. We are redefining the paradigm of animal stewardship, ensuring each animal lives joyfully and freely, with the understanding that its life will someday nourish our community in a sacred and honored way.

• Teaching Apothecary: This tract offers comprehensive education in herbal medicine and nutrition, including medicine-making classes, herbal farming, and an herbal clinic where practitioners design personalized formulas. The Teaching Apothecary collaborates closely with our Psychedelic Temple to craft ceremonial sacraments, bridging the worlds of herbal medicine and spiritual practice.

 

At the heart of Haven of Harmony is a commitment to sustainability, community, and transformation. We are not just cultivating the land; we are cultivating a new way of living, learning, and healing that honors the Earth and all its inhabitants.

 

I invite like-minded professionals—experts in natural building, permaculture, farm-to-fork culinary arts, and holistic healing—to connect with me. Together, we can co-create an institution that inspires, educates, and transforms.
