Dear Friends

🌱 Cultivating a More Resilient, Healthy Community

Community Herbal Farmacy • Jerusalem Forest Medicine

There is potent medicine in the land to harvest for healing. This seed project exists to help make that medicine accessible to people affected by the war.

This seed pilot Community Herbal Farmacy is rooted in the understanding that the forests of Jerusalem — their trees and plants are full of life force and hold deep medicinal resources. These plants are foraged ethically and prepared with groundedness, rooted in the intention of healing.

Community Herbal Farmacy • Jerusalem Forest Medicine begins with a small apothecary space and herbal medicine, prepared from ethically foraged, organic plants and trees sourced from the Jerusalem Forest.

Through teas, tinctures, salves, and elixirs, this project supports people affected by war, stress, and trauma, helping support:

• Nervous system regulation
• Sleep and digestion
• Pain relief
• Mental and emotional health
• A healthier, more grounded quality of life

This initiative is not only about connection to the land — it is also about how we naturally support one another.
When community members purchase medicine, they are paying it forward, helping keep herbal medicine accessible to all.

🌱 Education & Empowerment

Alongside medicine-making, the Farmacy offers in-person educational workshops that empower people to:

• Identify medicine in nature
• Prepare herbal medicine for themselves, family, and others in need
• Build practical skills for community care and resilience

The project also includes online educational content and a documentary herbalism series, allowing the medicine and knowledge of the land to be shared beyond borders.

🌳 Long-Term Vision

This seed project can grow into a holistic health and well-being space, integrating herbal medicine, food as medicine, body movement, and therapeutic practices — cultivating a more resilient, healthy community over time.

This initiative is part of Food Integrated Gardens (FIG) — a permaculture startup creating regenerative landscapes and reconnecting people with nature and the land of Israel.
