Description

Specialties

We teach the principles and practice of vitalist herbalism at all levels, from open classes on seasonal topics for the absolute beginner, to apprenticeships covering the use of herbs for family and community health, to advanced training for those who wish to become practicing clinical herbalists. We also teach first aid skills, Wilderness First Responder courses, and primitive skills.

In addition to classes and courses, we offer personal consultations — teaching individuals how to use herbs, traditional nutrition, and lifestyle changes to build vitality and bring about whole health.
