Plant Medicine in Guapulo

Guapulo is Quito most distinctive neighbourhood, a steep hillside village tumbling down from the Gonzalez Suarez ridge toward the Machangara river valley. Artists, hippies, and backpackers have settled here among colonial-era chapels and cobblestone streets. Herbal Quito Guapulo connects with the neighbourhood deep plant medicine tradition, offering a range of Andean and Amazonian herbs alongside hemp and CBD supplements within a holistic wellness framework.

Andean Plant Traditions and Cannabis

Ecuador has extraordinary plant biodiversity from the Amazon to the Andes. Traditional healers (yachaks) in Andean communities use dozens of plants for medicinal purposes. Cannabis is not traditionally part of Andean medicine but has been integrated by contemporary urban healers influenced by international cannabis science. Guapulo provides a culturally rich setting for exploring this integration.
