About this speaker
Jocelyn Boreta is a community organizer, herbalist and the granddaughter of an Indigenous Farmworker.
She is Executive Director and Co-Founder of Botanical Bus (501c3), a bilingual mobile herb clinic that provides place based, culturally centered, collaborative healthcare in Latine and Indigenous immigrant communities. Botanical Bus strives to increase access to healthcare, reduce health disparities and improve health outcomes so that Latine and Indigenous immigrants experience healing justice, radical belonging and participatory community care. Direct healthcare services, provided at vineyard worksites, farmworker housing, offices of legal access programs and family service centers, include herbalism, nutrition, massage, acupuncture, and somatic therapy.
Jocelyn holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in Cultural Anthropology from University of California Santa Barbara and certification in herbalism from the California School of Herbal Studies. She believes that “Herbalism is activism. It shows us that we are connected to the earth, that we know how to heal ourselves, our families and our communities with the plants that grow around us.”
Woodland Essence's intention & practice is to offer high quality herbal products prepared by hand from organically grown & ethically wildcrafted plants. The challenges of tick-borne infections has fueled our search for plant medicine that can help people on their journey back to health & well-being.
