Appalachian Herb Collective

The Appalachian Herb Collective (AHC) is an Herbal Re-leaf effort created in response to the devastation inflicted throughout our area after Hurricane Helene decimated and displaced so many. This is a grass roots effort of local Herbalists on the ground, meant to directly hep the folks affected by this catastrophic event. We have dubbed ourselves, the Appalachian Herb Collective (AHC) as we are covering as many counties in Western North Carolina and Eastern Tennessee as possible offering Free Herbal Mutual Aid hubs.

We currently have various locations set up in Madison, Buncombe and Yancey County in North Carolina as well as Unicoi County, Tennessee and are actively working to set up even more AHC stations to support as many areas affected as possible.
