Andre Shepherd Page 8

At a small herb farm in Huntington, West Virginia, Andre Shepherd manages culinary and medicinal crop production and teaches wild-plant identification. He spends his mornings tending field beds, harvesting aromatic greens, and drying herbs for market distribution. Throughout the spring and autumn, Shepherd leads small groups along the farm’s wooded borders, showing visitors how to recognize edible native plants, gather seasonal shoots responsibly, and understand local woodland habitats.
