CSM: COMMUNITY SUpported (HErbal) Medicine
With community gardening experience from 2005 in Edinburgh to the present day I have worked with people and the land and seen the benefits. Friends setting up Community Supported Agriculture CSA schemes inspired me to think of a herbal medicine version. I had heard of Chinese Herbalists who only got paid when the villagers were well. I dreamt of a field in each village or on allotments or on part of the village green and how with a small direct debit from everyone in the community, I could be supported and offer my treatments, workshops in growing and making and prescription herb gardening. I always felt it was a dream waiting until I lived in a suitable community.
This is still a dream and confusing to include it in the main design. I wanted to share my ideas though as a marker for the future.
