Jonathan fell in love with the art and science of herbalism through his studies at Southwest Acupuncture College in Boulder, CO. He is passionate about organic and sustainable farming practices and ensures the herbs in Chi Chi Wellness chocolates are grown to USDA organic standards. When not formulating herbal blends for our chocolate products, you can find Jonathan at home in Vermont, hiking in the Green Mountains and foraging for herbs and mushrooms. Look for Jonathan’s photos on our social media channels, he loves popping a Chi Chi Wellness chocolate bar into the beautiful scenery of our beloved Vermont.
