Jules Pecson
Master Herbalist
In 2009, after a diagnosis of breast cancer, a fellow neighbor advised Jules to speak with Darcy Williamson, a master herbalist in McCall, ID. Grasping for any information/options available to her, she quickly called Darcy and made an appointment for a consultation. Darcy just looked at her and said, “You’re not going to die. You just need to change your diet and learn about the herbs.” -and that's just what Jules did.

Jules quickly became an apprentice of Darcy’s and made the lifestyle changes recommended. For 6 years, she walked the forest with Darcy and learned the time tested methods of traditional medicine. Today, she is cancer free, and feels extremely blessed to be able to pass on the knowledge that she feels saved her life.

In 2015, Jules decided to bring the art form of wild crafting to Northern California and started Fiona’s Forest. Today, she is committed to passing on the knowledge of the healing plants and helping to change her customers' lives for the better.

Katy Wilson
Herbalist
Katy partnered with Jules and Fiona’s Forest in September of 2021. Jules searched long and hard for a partner to help keep up with the increasing demand and need for traditional remedies. After the devastating wildfire of 2018 that roared through our home town of Paradise, CA, most employees and apprentices of Fiona’s Forest were forced to relocate. While this was not optimal, it allowed Jules an opportunity to think outside the box and ask her niece, Katy , to join Fiona’s Forest as her partner.

Katy grew up in Paradise and graduated from Paradise High School in 2009. After graduation, she moved down to San Diego, CA to attend San Diego State University. In 2013 she graduated with a Bachelors in Geography and a Bachelors in Communication. After college, she started her career in Logistics assisting with specialty account management. Katy thrives with customer relations and has always had a deep connection with nature.

Through her own health trials of pre-cancerous cells, the herbs have provided Katy with her own herbal testimony. Today, she too is 100% healthy and feels grateful to be able to guide others on their path with traditional medicine.
