Welcome Home
2025 will celebrate 8 years of the Gaia Hive!
​
This Rainbow Serpent Folk Herbalism Mentorship is part of the manifestation of the prophecy where spiritual family meets and connect with fire, plants, waters, and all elemental beings.
Together we remember how to be truly human in reciprocity to all beings.
I Julie Gaia am a mother, mentor, seed saver, weaver,
star seed, animist, land tender, and plant spirit medicine carrier. My roots are Scandinavian, Celtic, and Germanic. I LOVE teaching people about plants and how to make medicines in their own kitchens. I enjoy rattling and drumming songs of the plants so you can feel their spirits working within you. I am on earth to connect people and plants. I am excited to share my love with you. My cats are medicine cats and will be attending all classes!
I presently dwell on the traditional lands of the Saugeen Ojibway Peoples. I attend a drumming circle in Owen Sound to learn the Ojibway songs of this land. Each year I grow sacred tobacco to gift to the plants when harvesting. I always have free seeds for everyone. May our tending nourish this land.
Each year I enjoy connecting with plant allies throughout Ontario. Many seasons I have spent travelling and working with plants medicines. Six months on the big island of Hawaii, several winters in Central America, and time in Germanic lands have helped ignite my passion for plants and practicing ancestral ways.
​
I'm passionate about speaking my truth, protecting the waters around and within us, weaving community together, creating with our hands, S L OW I N G down, plant spirit healing, caring for the land, herbalism, and plant spirit mentorships. All classes I offer are hands-on and heart based. We sing, laugh, cry, and make class fun and nourishing.
