 laiming Heritage, Restoring Health, Rooted in the Mountains of East Tennessee

Welcome to the future home of the Sutherland–Mosier School of Herbal Medicine, a living tribute to generations of folk wisdom, healing traditions, and Appalachian resilience. Nestled deep in the rolling hills of Laurel Bloomery, Tennessee, this school is being built on sacred family land once belonging to my grandparents—a place that has held stories, struggles, and strength for generations.

For over 70 years, the Sutherland and Mosier families have tended these woods, creeks, and ridgelines. Here, among the blooming laurels and misty mountain air, my great-grandfather Isaac Mosier practiced folk veterinary herbalism, and my grandmother preserved old remedies that fed and healed the community.

Now, we are restoring their old homeplace into a modern sanctuary for herbal learning—a place where ancestral knowledge meets current science, where plants teach us how to live in rhythm with the earth.

The original house, with its creaking floors and hand-hewn beams, is undergoing a transformation. But we aren’t just rebuilding walls—we’re reclaiming our history and cultivating a vision. The Sutherland–Mosier School will serve as:

• A working apothecary and herb lab
   
• A classroom space for in-person intensives and community workshops
   
• A retreat center for students and healers seeking reconnection with land-based wisdom
   
• A model for regenerative living and herbal self-reliance
   

Tucked into the northeastern corner of Tennessee, Laurel Bloomery is a hidden jewel of the Appalachian Highlands, where medicinal plants like black cohosh, bloodroot, ginseng, and wild cherry still grow wild. It's a place where nature speaks clearly and the old ways still echo in the wind.

This is more than just a location—it’s a teacher in itself. Every stone and stem here holds a story.

We envision the Sutherland–Mosier School of Herbal Medicine as a beacon for those seeking:

• An authentic education in Appalachian folk herbalism
   
• Clinical training rooted in whole-person wellness
   
• An inclusive, intergenerational learning environment
   
• A return to relationship with the land, lineage, and local plant allies
   

This is a labor of love, sweat, and sacred intention. We are rebuilding from the foundation up—literally. If you’d like to help support the transformation of this home into a center for healing:

• Volunteer your time or building skills
   
• Sponsor a room, garden bed, or learning program
   
• Share our mission with others who believe in preserving herbal traditions

The Sutherland–Mosier School of Herbal Medicine is a call to return—to the plants, to the people, and to the places that made us. We are here to teach, learn, and grow together.

The mountain is calling. Will you answer?
