Herbal FUNdamentals Level 1

Herbal Fundamentals Level 1 is a 6-week in-person (or virtual live) course designed to introduce you to the art of plant medicine through hands-on practice and connection. Each one-hour class focuses on a single plant and a traditional medicine-making technique—teas, tinctures, vinegars, oils, + salves. You’ll explore herbs that support the nervous system, digestion, bones, circulation, liver, and skin while deepening your relationship to the Wise Woman Tradition. This is a nourishing introduction to herbalism—no experience needed.
