SHOPPE Karen settled in Colorado and began growing organic vegetables and SOURCE herbs in cold frames and raised boxes. Her love of herbs and pure, natural produce led her to begin an intensive program toward a doctor of SPEAKERS Naturopathy degree with a focus on women's health, geriatric health and Wholistic animal and pet care.
