These photos are the culmination of over a year spent documenting the lives of the Sisters of the Valley, an enclave of Sisters devoted to bringing plant-based medicine to those in need. Despite facing challenges with local laws and regulations, the Sisters remain steadfast in their mission to provide natural remedies to California’s Central Valley. These images invite you into their world, capturing the intricate processes of crafting oils, salves, teas, and much more. You will also find glimpses of typical farm life within this not-so-typical community. Each photograph reflects their deep connection to the land, the plants, and each other. Let these photos serve as a reminder that there are always stories to be told.
This project includes a gallery showing and a photo book publication:
