With Andrea Jackson, RN, HSA Member and Herbal Lecturer

Andrea Jackson

We may spend countless hours ridding our gardens of plants we consider to be weeds but let's take another closer look because these neglected plants provide us with delicious food, wonderful medicine and fascinating stories. 

Andrea Jackson started her herbal adventure over 40 years ago after attending an herb walk led by Piccadilly Herb Club, of which she ultimately became a member.  When she lived in Baltimore, she was a founding member of Partners in Thyme. She is a member of the Leadership Committee of the Western Pennsylvania Unit of the Herb Society of America, and also belongs to  the American Herbalists Guild, and the American Botanical Council.

Herbs aside, Andrea is a registered nurse and a Master Gardener and lectures extensively to groups ranging from professional organizations to garden clubs.  She was featured on the local affiliate of ABC news in a segment on medicinal herbs.

Her particular interests lie the medicinal uses of herbs, herbal lore, and weeds, which she considers to be the first herbs.
