This is learning about the herbs:  What their gifts and actions are, how to work with them, and how they connect us to a deeper knowing about the body and our health. 

Safety

Which herb?  How much?  How long to take?  What will it mix with — or not?   When should I avoid it?  Herbal medicine has a long history of safety because it answers these questions. 

Practical Uses

Pan Tea

Everyday.  Ordinary.  Surprising!  It is so satisfying to bring herbs into our lives when we need them, for nutrition, to bolster health, and to work with health challenges.

Learn to Work with Herbs

Learn through small or large group classes, stand alone presentations, workshops, and one on one instruction. 

The focus will vary depending on the existing knowledge and skill of the group or student,
and what you want to accomplish. 

Emphasis is on:

Group Work

This is an economical and enjoyable way to step into the world of herbs or further your skill.

Gather your friends or talk to your local group or community, and learn together. 

Classes and workshops are customized to your needs, interests or theme.

Private Study

Are you more comfortable studying one-on-one, at your own pace?  I customize the work to your needs, taking into consideration what you know, what you want to learn, and seasonal availability of herbs.  Spaces are limited, and sessions run from February through October in most years, with some interruptions as called for by my schedule.  If interested, please contact me below.
