Description

Suzanne M. Tabert is a bioregional herbalist, educator, speaker, and author with four decades of experience teaching herbal medicine. She is the director of herbal education at Cedar Mountain Herb School, one of the longest-running herbal schools in the Pacific Northwest. She is also an adjunct professor at Bastyr University, where she has taught for fourteen years, training generations of herbalists in foraging, phytochemistry, and holistic wellness.



Suzanne lives on a four-acre farmlet in Sandpoint, Idaho, where she maintains extensive herb and veggie gardens and orchards. Her lifelong love for the natural world began at the age of five under the mentorship of her Great Aunt Mary, a spark that grew into a lifelong passion to preserve and share the art and science of foraging and plant medicine.



A sought-after speaker at national and international herbal conferences, Suzanne is a frequent presenter for the American Herbalists Guild and a regular blog writer, speaker, and podcast guest for Mountain Rose Herbs. She writes for major publications and is often featured on radio and podcasts. Suzanne is a member of the American Herbalists Guild and serves as a partner in education with United Plant Savers.


"Foraging is an act of reconnection with Earth. The medicine we need in our ailing times is growing right outside our doors freely and abundantly. The Foragers Apothecary is a comprehensive guide to help us on our journey of identifying, harvesting, and preparing these wild plants and in doing so heal ourselves, our communities, and our Earth."--Robin Greenfield, environmental activist

"The Foragers Apothecary is wonderfully written and thorough, from plant identification to medicine-making techniques. Suzanne has thought of everything, including recipes for all of your foraged finds. A must-have book for your library!"--Anne-Marie Bilella, the Forager Chick; author of Wild Eating with the Forager Chicks

"Empowering and complete--there isnt a page in this book I would change. The Foragers Apothecary is perhaps the most thorough foraging book Ive ever read. It begins with the foundational skills needed for safe plant identification and ethical wildcrafting, then dives deep into constituents, formulations, and outside-the-box recipes. Truly a gem in my botanical library."--Jessicka Nebesni, herbal liaison, Mountain Rose Herbs

"Ethical wildcrafting demands precision and respect for plant identity and plant ecosystems. Suzanne brings decades of field experience and deep ecological knowledge to every page of The Foragers Apothecary. This is not a casual wildcrafters handbook--it is a rigorous, ethically grounded guide to edible and medicinal plants, written by someone who has spent a lifetime in relationship with this landscape. Suzanne has been teaching Bastyr University students in wildcrafting courses for over twelve years, and I am pleased to see her wisdom and experience distilled in these pages."--Kaleb C. Lund, PhD, RH (AHG), chair, Department of Botanical Medicine, Bastyr University
