Seeds of Herbalism – Finding your path in the forest
A 6 week introduction to the art and science of herbalism. This course is for anyone that wants to build a foundation of learning in herbalism.

We will explore 12 herbs, how to study herbs, how to make a plant profile, understanding formulas and the tools to develop your own connections and relationships with the plants you are drawn to. This class will be a strong foundation for further exploration into herbalism, plant spirit connections and medicinal plants.
