After the fire, the seeds remained.
At Bitter Sweet Herbal School, the rhythm of healing continues-not with perfection, but with quiet resilience. This Is How We Rise follows Willow, Resha, Jareth, Mavrek, and the growing circle of herbalists, caregivers, and seekers who are rebuilding more than gardens. They are planting a way forward.
As the world around them reshapes, Bitter Sweet becomes more than a school. It becomes sanctuary. Community. A promise. New apprentices arrive. Old wounds resurface. The Parish expands its reach. And whispers of hope travel through ledgers, rooftop gardens, and songs sung by children who've found safety in the wild.
Told with lyrical warmth and rich emotional depth, this is a story of restoration-of land, of lineage, and of the bonds that carry us through collapse into connection.
Because rising doesn't mean we never fall.
It means we learn how to lift-together.
