Sara Schuster is an herbalist, homesteader, and medicinal herb farmer living and growing on 13 acres just north of Nashville. Throughout her teen years and into early adulthood, Sara felt called to the plant wold but instead spent a decade trying on different careers before finally returning to the plant path. Now Sara’s days are happily filled with tending to the farm and woods where she grows medicinal herbs, creates small-batch herbal products, and offers one-on-one client consultations through her business, Fox & Elder. When we’re not in the middle of pandemic, Sara also offers classes and hands-on workshops. She also hosts the Tending Seeds podcast where she shares her knowledge about all things gardening, farming, herbalism, and homesteading.

Plant conservation and plant medicine accessibility are both passions of Saras and because of that she is a member and financial supporter of United Plant Savers and Herbalists Without Borders. She has also served on the leadership board for the Tennessee chapter of the American Herbalist Guild since 2018.
