I am an Ordained Priest and am a lifelong Kitchen Hedge Witch born and raised in the Appalacchian mountains on the edge of the Allegheny forest. Being Ordained I can do any religious services (Hand Fasting, Naming, Baptism, Funeral, Memorial etc) I have a Masters degree in Divinity and Religious Studies and I am 1/2 British and 1/2 Dutch. I have made a life long project of studying ancient healing techniques and am knowledgable in salves, charms and potions. My strengths are spoken spells, charms, healing magic, fire magic, candle magic, and divination. I am also well versed in numerology, cabbala and the various uses of Tarot.

A Witch who combines many elements of Traditional Witchcraft and Nature Witchcraft, as well as Shamanism and healing, with a more rural tone to their practise. A hedgewitch studies herbalism, nature, shamanism, healing lore, hearthcraft, nature oriented magick and anything else she may find useful. She will study both magickal and medicinal herbalism. Hedgewitches study and practice their rituals and magick anywhere they may, but prefer to in rural or wild areas. They also tend to live in more rural places. She will have a garden if she can, but prefers to gather plants and magickal materials from the wild. She may know a lot about what grows in the wild, as well as about wildlife and livestock. Her tools will be a mix of different useful items, as well as natural items and shamanic tools. Such as walking sticks and staffs, wands, rattles, a medicine bag, pruning shears, cooking pots, besoms, and the tools of herbalism, such as a mortar and pestual. Her shrine/altar can be placed anywhere in her home, garden or yard, and she may have special places set up in her favorite wild places, or a corner of a farm field. Her patrons will be deities of nature, the wild, and agriculture, healing, the harvest and the Underworld.
