Welcome to

The Eighth Leaf Project

At The Eighth Leaf Project, we believe healing begins with the land. Based in Robeson County, North Carolina, we are a clinical and community-based research center exploring the medicinal power of wild and often-overlooked plants — beginning with the Great Mullein.

🎵 God Don’t Make Weeds – Our Song of Healing

"God Don’t Make Weeds" is more than just a song — it’s the anthem of My Happy Place Farm and The Eighth Leaf Project.
Written by Brenda Schwab, it celebrates the wild plants the world often overlooks — but God never does.

They called it a weed in the garden bed,
Said it don’t belong, pull it up instead.
But I saw it standing, golden and free,
Waving like a prayer beneath the old pine tree.
