Steph Zabel spent her childhood in the South, and her early adult years in Spain, Mexico, and the U.K. until she was finally called to the Boston area. She has a deep love for the shifting seasons of this part of the world, its wild & urban landscapes, its proximity to the sea, and its connections to her ancestral homeland of Ireland.
Nearly a decade ago Steph created Herbstalk, a joyful community-based herbal gathering, which brings together crafters, teachers and students from across the region. She is also a graduate of the CommonWealth Center for Herbal Medicine and holds a MSc in ethnobotany. She worked for many years in the botanical collections at the Harvard University Herbarium.
Steph is a mother, gardener, keeper of chickens, facilitator of community and student of the wisdom traditions. Her work is to help others remember the beauty and knowingness of their own hearts, and their inherent connections to both Earth & Spirit.
