About The Herbal Mama

Hi, I’m Elaine Doucette - Founder of The Herbal Mama Co. I am a mama of 2 brilliant boys, a Clinical Herbalist, Iridologist, and Fermentation Revivalist helping people reconnect with traditional food medicine, herbs, and holistic health.

 

For over two decades, I’ve guided others to heal their gut, restore their energy, and trust their body’s wisdom. From farmers’ markets to fermentation workshops across Alberta, my work blends herbal knowledge, ancestral food traditions, and a deep belief that wellness begins at home.

 

 Let’s bring back the wisdom of our ancestors - one bubbling brew and herbal remedy at a time.
