Free your soul: Seed Sistas

Unleash your plant power potential

Welcome herb lovers! Join the Seed Sistas at the Mind Body Soul Experience for a deep-dive exploration into the plant kingdom.

The Seed Sistas are Kaz Goodweather and Fiona Heckels, both clinical herbalists for over 20 years and with a love and interest in the so-called witching herbs of old. They are passionately potty about plants and total herbal drama queens, enjoying dressing up as plants, creating fun and enlivening online content and playing with all manner of potions.

Allowing the plants to guide them to ever more ridiculous productions, they pass on knowledge about how to learn about the plants that grow around you and to empower yourself to use them as simple remedies in the home.

Seed Sistas also run a community interest company, Sensory Solutions Herbal Evolution, that focuses on planting and supporting community herb gardens and creating empowered, resilient communities that care for their local green spaces.

“Our mission is to reconnect people to their local plants, specifically, so that they can rediscover all of the tools and support that they can gain from what grows around them,” says Goodweather. “This, we strive to achieve with community gardens.”

The ’Sistas’ have also published two books — the Sensory Herbal Handbook and Poison Prescriptions — to help others uncover the potent power of plants.

“I think people are really grateful that we bring our magical and spiritual connection with the plants into our works and overlay it with the scientific understanding,” says Heckels. “We always have our feet in both camps, that we would ultimately like to unite as one.”
