Speaker Bio:

Jona Reyes has been an herbalist for 4 years and has been in the clinical setting since 2019 working with clients and their providers to find an all-natural health plan that works for their individual needs. She enjoys researching and learning about the different properties of the herbs that make up the supplements she creates. She has 4 children who love taking walks through the neighborhood to forage and learn about the many foods and vitamins that surround us every day. There is a verse in the bible that states "The fruit of the trees shall be for meat and the leaves shall be for medicine" this saying drives not only her life but it is what helps her to have such a connection to the world around us because she knows in order to live healthy, it takes a good relationship with your body and what you consume and nothing is healthier than the plants that sprout up with no effort.
