Herbalism 101: An Introduction to the Art and Science of Herbal Medicine

This fun series will introduce you to the art and science of using herbs as medicine. It is geared towards the family herbalist who wants to become more confident using herbs for health and wellness and will provide a foundation for those who wish to study herbalism more in depth.

The small class size will ensure personal attention and plenty of time for answering questions. The classes will be a combination of hands on practice and discussion. The classes are held once a month to provide the student with an opportunity to practice what they've learned, have time for additional self-study, and build on what they've learned at the next class.

Handouts are included as is free attendance at any herb walks scheduled during the year of attendance. Attendance required at all six classes in order to receive certificate of completion.
