About Me
Crystal Hamby (Stelzer)
Crystal's knowledge stems from her devotion to all things green, and from her education in herbal medicine. Crystal holds a bachelor's of science in Herbal Medicine from Bastyr University, where she is an adjunct faculty member teaching classes in the Botanical Medicine department.
She believes that everyone can benefit from the healing power of plant medicine, whether they wish to incorporate herbal medicine into their personal/family health care, they desire to learn more about the local medicinal plants and their uses, or they would like to learn how to transform medicinal plants into a bevy of herbal preparations to help support good health for themselves and their household.
