Class Review - About Cindy’s teaching style:
Cindy is a kind, humble and downright joyful human and wonderful teacher. She approaches her classes with solid structure and information, but leaves essential room for play and connection. I love that she encourages us to build the foundation of our own relationship with plants before working with them. She's a true devotee to Nature and makes it feel possible to deepen my own herbalism practice.

I offer personal consultations that feature natural solutions and herbs to change the trajectory of ones health. I am a community educator and teach classes around San Diego, including the World Beat Center, Wild Willow Farm, the Coronado Library, and online.
Green Blessings and I hope to meet you soon!
About the location: BeeWorthy Farms
We are a certified organic cut flower and herb farm growing on 1-acre in Encinitas, CA on lands originally stewarded by the Kumeyaay people. The land we grow on is leased from the Encinitas Union School District. As such, we are not open to the public, except for guided experiences.
Starting on this land in May 2022, we developed farming systems that regenerate the soil, enhance space for wildlife, and promote a broad spectrum of pollinators. Our farming style is a little wild, with lots of planning and intention to support our efforts.
From ranunculus to foxglove and sweet peas to zinnias, we are constantly learning and observing the flowers that do best on our farm. We thrive when we respect and give in reciprocity to the land. By showing up, we give a bit or ourselves and in return receive the grounding and balance this space has to offer.
