My name is Jon Lee Rucker I’m one of the head organizers of the PermaJam Festival. Our recent festival was July 1-4th 2017. We had about 600 in attendance. I am beyond grateful to Rainé for setting up a Healing Sanctuary and serving as the Medic for our festival. She and Brandon came fully prepared to handle any medical emergency, with all the supplies, tinctures and equipment. They even brought signs that were hung around the festival grounds to direct people where to go in the event of an emergency, and also to keep people aware for things like ticks and poison ivy. There were a fair amount of incidences that required medical attention and Rainé and Brandon handled each instance with such poise and loving care, it was amazing. Their ability to work with people in extremely stressful situations and to really have a gentle control over the situation is amazing. So I just want to thank you again Rainé and Brandon, thank you Mountain Medicine Woman, we could not have held this event without you. Thanks to you, PermaJam maintains a reputation as a safe place for people to come, learn, celebrate and share in the beauty of culture and life. I would recommend this team for any festival or event. They thought about everything, were prepared for anything and went above and beyond taking care of the tribe. Good work!

This is a woman with some serious talent who is clearly dedicated to her craft. My wife and I can both attest to the quality of her products. This most recently demonstrated to us with an elixir to help induce sleep on those nights when the brain just won’t shut down. Effective, and without the “Benadryl hangover”. If you are looking for a natural product made by a well educated practitioner of the art who puts her heart into her work you have found the place for that!

Eyes that truly saw me, ears that truly heard me, a heart that truly felt me and arms that wrapped strongly around me, teaching me trust, understanding and love.

Raine has a wealth of knowledge and energy that she gives so abundantly. I love coming up to the mountain n having her show me how to work with different planets to make medicine that really stems from my own needs n instincts n learning how to trust that. Thank you Raine for opening your heart, your home n your mind to me and sharing all this beautiful Mountain Woman Medicine. I can’t wait to do more Beata Beatrix Dec 2018
Raine is amazingly insightful with her application of natural medicines and a true pleasure to be around. If you are contemplating learning anything about natural medicines, she is a library of knowledge and can direct you to even more sources on your own quest.

For those who know me and my passions for the last 20 years, dreams really DO come true! Since my path crossed with Raine Ford of “Mountain Woman Medicine” in August, my life has bloomed. Through Inner Cartography courses and now Apothecary/Herbal classes, I am able to happily be me! I am able to share Raine’s gifts with myself and others. I have never felt more whole than I do now as I wildcraft, make medicine, and build my apothecary. There’s not an accurate word to describe my deep gratitude for Raine and my connection with her, as well as my soul family! (I’m not crying, I’m verclempt). Meow!

I’ve been having such a hard time putting into words how much I got out of this class. I’ve been dabbling in studying herbal medicines for a very long time, but I have never taken a real class. I learned some great information that was brand new for me, and the class itself was just really magical. Of course I learned some really practical things about solubility, different menstruums, potency, thinking about combinations… and I had never made wine! And that was all valuable and I really appreciate that I got so much out of it in that realm… but I have to say the piece that was truly magical in this was the way you, Raine Ford, gather us together and create a magical space for learning- your teaching, your space there on the mountain, how you ARE, it made for a much needed breath of fresh air and joy in my life. I am looking forward to taking as many classes with you as I can get!

If you’ve never taken a class with Raine, you’re missing out! She’s an awesome teacher! I met Raine at PermaJam and took her workshops. I continued on with her for InnerCartography. Looking forward to moving ahead with the E3 course.She takes the time to explain anything you may be struggling to understand and goes out of her way to teach via the different learning methods (audio, visual, kinesthetic).These classes have by far been worth their weight in gold and have helped change my whole perception of people based on my understanding of human design. If you’re on the fence, take the class. You won’t be sorry.

From the moment I met Raine, I could feel her magic from a mile away. She had an unforgettable presence about her and I knew immediately that I wanted to work with her. Soon thereafter, I signed up for her 1:1 sessions and wow, did they leave an impact… It didn’t matter whether we were talking about twin flames, finances, masculine and feminine energy, or anything in between because it felt like Raine always knew what my soul needed to hear. She weaves together her clear channel, her vast knowledge, and her personal experiences in a way that I have seen few do before. Even months after our sessions, I found that Raine’s guidance was still spiraling deeper and deeper into my being. She has played a big part in my evolution, especially in me emerging as a soul-led entrepreneur, and I am forever grateful for her and her service to the world. I love you so much, Raine!!!

These folks know their stuff! I have been having gut issues and the tincture I got has worked wonders for my gallbladder! Thank you because nothing that traditional practices has worked so far. This has been the only thing to help every time. Will definitely be back again!

When I found Mountain Woman Medicine, I stumbled upon classes I didn’t know existed. I signed up, unsure of exactly what I was getting myself into… never dreaming that through them I would find such a beautiful community, material that spoke to me so deeply I couldn’t wait to learn more, and a message I would want to support and help share with the world. Raine’s energy is magnetic, her readings are always spot on and mysteriously synchronistic, and the work she does is clearly from a place of love and care for the growth and healing of others. This is the place you need to be to take your spiritual knowledge and understanding to the next level and to meet people who want the same!
