There are many ways to enter into relationship
with the medicine of the earth.
At The Fairie Apothecary, I offer various paths into the wisdom of the land and the plants —
through living, experiential, and in-depth practice, rooted in presence, right relation, and hands-on creation.
From seasonal and year-long courses, to immersive retreats,
forest gatherings, foraging walks, and workshops for groups —
each offering is an invitation to slow down, listen, and learn in direct relationship with the living world.
—
There are many gateways to enter through,
at rythym and path that feels aligned to you.
You are warmly invited to walk this green path together —
to learn with the herbs,
and remember the medicine that awaits you in the earth.

Full-Year Journey
Testimonies
Lavi
It was an experience that connected spirit and nature in a way I had never encountered before. There was such a special atmosphere and a truly beautiful meeting with the forest. The space felt very welcoming, the group felt warm and comfortable to me, and Shir guides from the heart — you can genuinely feel it.
I met plants I had never known before, and I truly hope to keep weaving the spirit of these teachings into the life around me
Hadas
A beautiful and meaningful experience — educational, grounding, and deeply connecting to nature. It created space to pause, disconnect from the rush of everyday life, and simply be.
It was truly important and significant for me, and I can feel that reflected in the way I’m trying to apply and integrate what I learned into my daily life. I’ve also noticed that the way I walk alongside “the green world” has changed. I’m no longer just passing by plants and weeds without noticing them. My gaze has become more curious and observant — trying to identify, understand, distinguish, and examine.
I feel much more aware of what surrounds me, trying to forage, gather, and meet the plants I can use and heal with.
Adva
I enjoyed it so much. I loved being outdoors and the diversity of the people in the group.
I deeply appreciated the attention to detail from Shir and Tal — it was clear how much knowledge they carry, and how generously they share it. I loved that we went out foraging, that there was time to sit and share a meal, and that we created medicine together.
You made herbalism feel truly accessible. We got to witness real processes unfold, and the accessibility of both foraging and medicine making became much more tangible to me. I really cherish that.
Adi
It was a soul-lifting and deeply enlivening experience. I encountered nature in a direct, primal, and intimate way. Through Shir’s meaningful guidance — offered with gentleness, love, and deep reverence for creation — I felt truly held throughout the journey.
I left with a wealth of theoretical knowledge, but even more than that, with experiences of drawing closer to myself, to the earth, and to the plants.
