Well of Indigenous Wisdom has been in operation since 2012, starting as Ola's Herb Shop in Pittsburgh and transforming into Omaroti in Mayagüez, Puerto Rico. We have since closed both locations and now have an Etsy Store. Well of Indigenous Wisdom is a collaboration of the talents of graduates offering workshops, (discounted) consultations, and herbal products. We invite guest teachers to share their rich knowledge in our curriculum, and we are invested in bringing people together. Our clients are always pleased with our services in clinical herbalism and spiritual guidance, and our students are impressed with their life-changing education.
