I’m Trey, rootworker, Army veteran, and cultural keeper behind Pangea’s Botanica. This work isn’t a trend—it’s survival knowledge: how Black folks kept the home covered, the mind steady, and the spirit protected when the world didn’t offer us safety.
Rootwork is more than “spirituality” to me. It’s a way of living—prayer, plants, Psalms, protection, healing, and community care—passed down in kitchens, porches, and back rooms when hospitals and systems failed us.
As a disabled veteran, I move with discipline and intention: protection is practical and spiritual.
Now we’re building The Black Root Exchange—a Black-only container for cultural protection, education, and sovereignty. We learn the real history, share responsibly, and stop our traditions from being mined, diluted, and sold back to us. Privacy, consent, respect, and Black-first economics are the standard.
If you’ve felt the pull, you’re not crazy.
You’re remembering.
