Welcome!

Half Moon Herbals, founded by clinical herbalist student and certified Permaculture Designer Nikola Barsoum, is rooted in the vision of “an herbalist in every home.” Guided by this intention, Nikola’s work is to make herbal knowledge accessible, practical, and empowering—so that individuals and families can care for themselves and their communities with confidence.

​

Through seasonal Learning Circles, medicinal gardening mentorships, and permaculture-inspired design consultations, Half Moon Herbals offers hands-on education that connects people to the plants growing around them. These programs are community-focused, inclusive of diverse herbal traditions, and designed to help participants build real skills: from planting herbs to preparing remedies to weaving them into daily life.

​

For those seeking deeper one-on-one herbal support, Nikola also provides Clinical Herbalism consultations. These sessions take a holistic approach, offering personalized formulas and guidance that address root causes, support balance, and nurture long-term healing.

​

The heart of Half Moon Herbals is simple: to help people fall in love with the land, to cultivate resilience through relationship with plants, and to inspire a future where herbal wisdom lives in every home.

I live, grow and gather on the traditional territory of the Haudenosaunee, Anishnaabe and Attawandaron Peoples. I am grateful to these elders: past, present and emerging.
