Background

Background

Hannah Morano, founder of Sweet Birch Herbals, is a holistic health coach and community herbalist devoted to providing western Massachusetts with high-quality plant-based medicines that are locally grown and sustainably wild-crafted. Part of her practice is using the guidance of plant spirits to support clients. Especially for chronic challenges, energy clearings and ancestral work can help us get to the root of the issues.

Hannah's journey into herbalism and farming began in early childhood when she would join her mom while gardening and foraging. Later she decided to study Sustainable Agriculture at UMass Amherst, where she discovered the power of herbalism while treating her own illness in a few weeks with teas and tinctures recommended by a clinical herbalist.

Hannah launched her business, Sweet Birch Herbals, in 2014 inside her tiny home apothecary and eventually outgrew the kitchen pantry. She now has a small farm where she grows over 50 varieties of medicinal herbs with the support of several staff and a generous local community.

Hannah approaches her work with compassion and an open heart as she serves a wide range of clients. She also offers herbal medicine products and workshops throughout Massachusetts, where she creates custom blended formulas from her apothecary and provides specifically tailored protocols that include nutritional guidance and lifestyle suggestions. All of her plant medicines are sustainably wild crafted and cultivated to ensure abundance for future generations.

Testimonials

Testimonials

"I came to Hannah hoping to find some alleviation to the generalized anxiety disorder and depression symptoms I deal with more days than not, and which I've had most of my life. I am trying to take a more wholesome approach to healing instead of medication. Hannah's advice and the herbal tinctures she's made for me have helped immensely. Hannah listened genuinely and sincerely. I did not feel judged or embarrassed to share openly with her. She cares, and that means the world. To know my battle isn't over, but that I have Hannah there to help, is a huge relief."

“I began to see Hannah in Spring 2014 in the final weeks of my recovery from Lyme disease. I had been working with a Naturopath and already had a formula to kill the spirochete, but I was still feeling run-down and depleted from my year(s)-long recovery. I said, "Hannah, I feel so sick but I am so tired of detoxing. Please, no more detoxing. Help me build my strength up. I think I'm actually alright, but reclaiming my body has taken so much out of me." She empathized and agreed, and built me a formula that would work nicely with the herbs I was already taking. She said, "I think I want to give you some heart strengtheners" and it almost made me cry. It had been a long time since I had thought of my heart.”

"I have had many health challenges deeply affecting the quality of my life. I have worked with many practitioners. Hannah has been helping me using herbs, both a custom tincture I take twice daily and her amazing sleep tincture. She tunes in, she is connected to the Earth and Spirit, she is not in her head and I enjoy working with her. She is a support for me."
