About
Hi, I'm Jasmine
I am a potter, a doctor of Chinese medicine, and a permaculture designer of restoration-based, school and community gardens. I grew up with herbal medicine and have been practicing for over 20 years.
The Tea Garden was born seeking high quality, organic East Asian botanicals and drawing on the combined wisdom of text transmission and lineage practice, including the kitchen wisdom traditions of using medicinal herbs in food .
I discovered East Asian medicine first through the practice of taiji (tai chi) and subsequently through healing a repetitive stress injury using acupuncture and herbal medicine. East Asian medicine and it's broader cosmological and physiological understanding continue to support me and my family mentally, emotionally, and physically.
