This is how it could look
Knowledgeable gathering scene: wise-looking monkey — clearly expert in jungle plants — moving through dense understorey with beautifully woven basket on arm, carefully selecting and collecting medicinal and useful plants. Monkey knows exactly what looking for: examines each plant with expertise, sniffs some, breaks small piece of leaf from others to test. Basket already partly full with various herbs, roots, and leaves, all arranged carefully. Monkey wears small spectacles (for whimsical element) and has small illustrated plant guide tucked into belt pouch — though clearly long outgrown need for the guide. Around it: extraordinarily rich understorey vegetation, every plant slightly different.
