Advanced Herbalism

Advanced Herbalism

$149.00

NEW for 2025, this exciting class will take your understanding of wild plant medicine to a deeper level.

Prerequisite required - this is the only class on our 2025 roster that has a prerequisite. You must have taken an edible or medicinal plant class with us to be eligible for this advanced class.

Space is also limited - we are only taking 10 students in this class, so grab your spot now!

Students for this class should already know how to identify some common medicinal plants and create simple medicines from them (like a plantain poultice for bee stings); but that’s just the tip of the herbalist iceberg. In this advanced class, you will learn more complex facets of wild herbalism and discover easy ways that you can integrate it into your daily life. We will also prepare more complex medicines from wild ingredients. This class will include:

  • wild plants you can take for daily and seasonal health support

  • growing and propagating your own herbs (wild and cultivated species)

  • how to combine wild herbs for synergistic effects

  • making herbal pills and capsules

  • creating alcohol-free tinctures

  • “pro tips” for drying and processing your wild plant ingredients

  • and much more

Each student will receive a copy of our new Advanced Herbalism training manual that was created just for this class, and some take-home materials made during the class (herbal capsules, tonics, and other medicines).
