Hello!
I'm Jenine Kozey, a knitting, woodworking physicist who has a passion for edible and medicinal plants and all things to do with nature and the outdoors! I'm a bit of a Jack-of-all-trades having made everything from homemade cosmetics to tasty foraged meals and my own off-grid cabin. I'm notorious for trying new things, making mistakes, and helping others learn from them! I spend most of my life outdoors on my farm with my husband, four boys and my chickens. I love adventure, travel and helping others to heal and grow.
A perpetual learner and avid reader, I take numerous courses each year to hone my expertise. Most recently, I am enrolled in Advanced Herbalism with the Herbal Academy of New England as well as the Vitalist Herbal Practitioner Course through Evolutionary Herbalism. I have completed my Permaculture Design Certificate Course, Earthworks Course, Reading the Landscape Course and Plant Spirit Medicine Course among many others.
I teach the Permaculture Design Certificate Course, host various plants walks and teach workshops on rainwater harvesting, raising chickens, preserving food, gardening by the moon, self-healing seminars, and many other topics (both online and in-person).
In 2019 my life took a crazy, life-altering turn when I was diagnosed with a sarcoma that ate through my breastbone and caused my ribs to dislocate. I learned that year to ask for help, speak my mind and be true to who I was. I slowed down, simplified my life even further and gained a clarity of purpose that few people get to experience. This included narrowing down my life path to helping others find their passion and live the life they truly want. Luckily, I was able to shrink the sarcoma on my own to make it operable. Only three months after being told that I was cancer-free, the sarcoma returned with a vengeance! I was told by doctors that I had three months to live, and that "nothing could be done". Well! I didn't buy that nonsense for a second! I went down to Arizona for some first rate treatment, did extensive depth work and transformative healing and have come out the other side stronger and better than ever!
I appreciate each and every enrolment I receive as it helps me to learn what gaps I have in my understanding, and provides me the opportunity to meet wonderful, like-minded souls. If you feel like taking my courses is of benefit to you, I would love to meet you and have you on the journey!
All the best!
Jenine
