A Farewell for One Willow Documentary
In the weeks after I lost my apothecary to Hurricane Helene, a documentary crew came to film with me.
I’m so honored this elegy to One Willow, and this pivotal moment in my life, exists.
If, after you watch, you feel moved to support the recovery, Marshall High Studios—the beautiful arts community and 100-year-old building that housed our apothecary— is hoping to reach their goal by Valentine’s Day, and I would so love to see that happen! 💘
WAILING EARTH episode 1:
“A Farewell for One Willow” is a short documentary about herbalist and author Asia Suler’s return to her beloved One Willow Apothecaries in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene, and her reflections on the path ahead.”

Moved to tears at the title. Oh Asia…. thank you for your willingness to share your journey so openly and authentically. You are courageous, brave and true.
