Cimaruta Remedies is Kara Wood, a folk herbalist who works with those who wish to deepen and activate the ancestral connections inside their bodies. 

Her ancestors were Calabrian on her mothers side, and English, German, Scottish and Irish on her fathers side.  She believes the elements, the plants, the trees and mushrooms are our ancestors. She believes it all is energy exchange. 
Epigenetics, Mythology, and Living Folk culture direct and inform her work.

She holds classes and workshops in person and online, works one on one with folks, and makes herbal products with plants she grows.  She lives with her family on the California Central Coast.
