Sarah Jay (freelance writer at sarahjaywriting.com) grew up in her family’s gardens. She began studying plant medicines in college at the University of North Texas, where she earned her Bachelor’s in English Literature and Master’s in Applied Anthropology.

Sarah wants to empower readers of gardening and herbal publications to grow gracefully, practically, and efficiently so they can achieve their desired results.
