AnnMarie lives in the Hudson Valley (NY) and has several vocations – herbalist, caregiver, outdoor education teacher, musician – and she’s passionate about each one of them. She talks about her various jobs, why she chooses to maintain various gigs as opposed to focusing only on being an herbalist, for example, her shared living situation (including an in-home apothecary)and her penchant for taking vacations mid-Winter.
She talks about what an herbalist does, how she runs her business (particularly at the Kingston farmer’s market), being a caregiver to a woman who’s 105 years old, and her inexpensive travels to South America in January or February each year.
