A lodge built around
coming together.
Our first major development milestone is a community lodge in Kentucky…a welcoming place for members to gather, relax, and stay during scheduled workshops and weekend retreats.
At 1,000 active monthly members, we begin the lodge development process…a home base for medicinal plant learning, member gardens, and an orchard that grows alongside our community.
A place to reconnect with the plants. Find familiar faces. Feel part of something that keeps growing.

The group brought us together.
Let’s take it further.
Our Facebook communities are our largest places for connection. Behind every post, resource, and conversation is time, care, and the technology that helps us keep it growing.
As Medicinal Plants and Their Uses grew, I kept asking: how do we bring people closer and share more of the knowledge that brought us here?
That’s where the Members Circle began. A membership that helps maintain and grow our Facebook community, share medicinal plant resources, and bring people together through live learning and conversation.
What started as a little farmstead dream grew, too. We began looking for more land…room for people to gather, learn, and experience the plants together.
You’re joining a community with a life online…and a future beyond the screen.
Whether you found us through Facebook, Natureza, or someone you love, I’d be glad to welcome you.

The Botanical Barn.
The Members’ Orchard.
A place to return to.
Live from the Botanical Barn
Medicinal plant workshops and trainings hosted on the land…with livestreams connecting members wherever they are. Our future program also includes music and song circles and live conversations with invited teachers.
A tree with your name beside it
The Members’ Orchard offers a personal way to see the vision grow. We’re developing tree recognition, photo updates, and opportunities to visit and pick fruit as the orchard matures.
A summer 2027 celebration
We’re planning a family friendly medicinal plants and music celebration in Kentucky, with Indigenous musicians and teachers invited to take part. We look forward to inviting members and their families…with dates, guests, and event arrangements shared as confirmed.
These are future developments. The concert depends on community growth, readiness of the site, and guest arrangements. Tree recognition honors a contribution, without creating ownership.
Two weeks in the rainforest.
A connection that stays with you.
Join us for a planned two week journey alongside our dear friends in the Amazon Rainforest of Brazil…learning about medicinal plants with our Indigenous hosts, spending time where the plants grow, and getting to know the families who carry these traditions.
Our wider vision strengthens those relationships and the foundations that connect us…river transport, clean water, food, and welcoming places to gather.

A place to reconnect.
People to return to.
Alongside our medicinal plant learning, you’re joining a larger community…one that bridges experiences with Nature from Kentucky to our dear friends in the Amazon Rainforest of Brazil.
We call our vision for connected places Master Nodes…communities rooted in medicinal plants, healthy organic food, shared knowledge, and care for the Earth.
Your membership sustains the community at the heart of that vision. As it grows, we develop new opportunities to learn, gather, and get involved.
Join for the connection. Help grow something that can outlast us.
