Mitten Lowe is a medicine woman, biologist, clinical herbalist, devoted community member, mother, and partner. She works at the intersection of science and spirit, teaching food as medicine and the practical use of healing herbs. Her path began in childhood, cooking ancestral recipes and traditional foods for family gatherings and holidays, and it has remained her lifelong vocation.Before any formal training, she learned in the kitchen with her Yaya, her father, and her aunts. She grew up tending a high altitude garden and eating from the land while composting and caring for place. Her father’s reminder that “every day is Earth Day” still guides how she grows and harvests plants, makes medicine, and serves clients. He also sparked her love of broths, tonics, and what she fondly calls potions.Mitten’s work addresses the patterns and disconnections in families, culture, and consumerism that can pull people away from wellness and joy. She integrates decades of study, training, and lived experience into a grounded practice that helps clients return to what they truly need.With her team, she leads Journey to Wellness in Boulder, Colorado. The company offers an herbal product line, courses and programs, and a one on one healing practice available in person and online. Journey to Wellness collaborates with the land and the plants and honors ancestral wisdom alongside the best of earth based practice, spirit, and science.
