ABOUT THE FACILITATOR

Melonie Sherman, herbalist and passionate advocate for natural wellness, shares her knowledge and experience in herbal medicine-making to inspire others to explore the healing power of plants. As she winds down her 25+ year career in nonprofit leadership, most recently as Executive Director of Crabtree Farms of Chattanooga, Melonie is focused on continuing her path of life-long learning and discovery as a mentee and student of various herbalists. Through learning, teaching, explorative medicine-making and community building, she continues to weave an interconnected web of sharing the wisdom of the plants. During a 2008 break from her nonprofit leadership roles, Melonie pursued her love for holistic skincare by studying Aesthetics at the prestigious Aveda Institute in Washington, D.C. Her journey has since expanded to include formulating herbal remedies for wellness and skincare and earning an herbalist certification from Ecoversity in 2023.
