About
Herbalism begins with the Senses.
This class will give participants a chance to see, feel, touch, taste and smell the plants to gain hands-on experience that will continue once the class has finished.
Our society has become disconnected from the ability to heal ourselves and contribute to our overall health by the ways of preventative, precautionary and nourishing Medicine. Two thirds of Pharmaceuticals are still derived from plant sources today. Become more self-reliant and resilient by taking back our ancient wisdom and bringing healing into your own hands.​​

Create an Earthen Altar
A workshop dedicated to learning and founded on a physical connection
with the plants, who know that Herbalism starts from the ground up.
For those who wish to learn with the plants, from the plants...
for those who want to quiet the mind, and take the time to listen.
For those who want to focus on healing ecosystems, soil, plant relationships
- as well as healing bodies.
For those who understand plants are bodies too. Who want to experience the crooning lullaby of wind in oatstraw, the gentle shimmer of bare golden rod branches, the hum of pollen laden artichoke flowers...
This is for you - Let's build an Earthen Altar.
