Welcome to the Night Raven newsletter, released quarterly with the seasonal equinoxes and solstices.
The birth of this newsletter came at a time of my own birth-day and I can look back at over 30 years of devotion to supporting the health and well-being of Self, Others and Earth. My love and passion for Life inspires all that I offer—herbal remedies, consultations and classes—and I thought that it is time to share a little more of what is behind the medicine that moves through me.
Plants are here to heal yet at this time in history there is a great distrust and misunderstanding of plants labeled as invasive species. In this essay Constance invites readers to get curious about the role these plants have in personal and ecological healing.

Through personal stories and historical context, Constance delves into how the dandelion, a plant revered for food and medicine, has become a plant that many people wish to decimate from their lawns, and how we can come into relationship with these golden flowers. Includes a recipe for Dandelion Fritters.
