About Andrée
Clinical Herbalist, Founder of Circé + Médée
Based in West Pubnico, NS
Herbalism is not currently recognized as a regulated healthcare modality in Nova Scotia, nor is it provincially or federally licensed in Canada. In this context, the Herbalist Association of Nova Scotia (HANS) offers a voluntary registration process, which Andrée Noye is actively pursuing. Her standards of practice already reflect the association’s code of ethics, and she brings extensive training and clinical experience acquired from outside the province.
Andrée holds a Master of Arts in Interdisciplinary Studies from Royal Roads University (Victoria, BC) and completed her Naturopath-Herbalist training at the Académie de massothérapie et d’orthothérapie (Gatineau-Hull, QC). Her continuing education includes over 2100 hours of advanced study in herbal medicine, naturopathy, anatomy, physiology, holistic nutrition, and aromatherapy. She has further completed the Clinical Herbalist Path through the Herbal Academy, including its Advanced Herbal Course and Clinical Skills training.
While no longer a certified naturopath—having chosen to focus solely on herbalism after relocating to West Pubnico, Nova Scotia—her approach remains academically grounded, holistic, and guided by both scientific inquiry and traditional wisdom. Her work weaves together Traditional Western Herbalism, elements of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and Ayurvedic principles, with a strong emphasis on Nova Scotian flora and at-risk medicinal plants.
In an unregulated field, Andrée views registration not as a requirement but as a professional responsibility—one that upholds integrity, education, and a clear scope of practice in service to her community.

About Eldrick
Fermentation Specialist, Founder of The Mad Fermenter
Based in Wedgeport, NS
Born and raised in Wedgeport, Nova Scotia, Eldrick is rooted in a deep love for tradition, hard work, and community. Influenced early on by his Grand-Mère and mother, he grew up watching them bake bread, pickle vegetables, and preserve jams. That kitchen magic sparked a lifelong passion for food—and eventually, fermentation.
After discovering how delicious and gut-friendly gluten-free fermented foods could be, Eldrick dove headfirst into the world of cultured cuisine. Today, he is the creative force behind The Mad Fermenter, a small-batch fermentation project committed to taste, health, and ancestral foodways.
Grounded and community-focused, Eldrick brings sincerity, curiosity, and care into everything he does. His mission is simple: share the benefits of fermented foods, promote gut health, and reconnect people with the nourishment of real, living food.
