Throughout history, women have shared an intimate, often overlooked bond with the plant world—one that extends far beyond gardening or foraging.

Plants have been their allies in survival, healing, and rebellion. Whether through preserving food in times of famine, practicing forbidden herbal medicine, or challenging colonial powers with the wisdom of the land, women have safeguarded knowledge that was often dismissed, suppressed, or even punished.

Yet, in every era, they found ways to resist—passing their expertise through whispers, rituals, and seeds sown in defiance.

Happy Women's Day💐👑
