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 and Clinical Herbal Therapy Consultations, Half Moon Herbals offers hands-on education and holistic herbal support that connects people to the plants growing around them. This work is community-focused, inclusive of diverse herbal traditions, and designed to help participants build lasting relationships with the plants, weaving them into daily life.​ Clinical consultations offer personalized formulas and guidance that address root causes 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 and respect for the land lives in the heart of 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.
