This 8 week course includes readings, videos, online lectures, discussions, assignments and quizzes, all aimed at introducing you to some foundational knowledge of herbalism. Through this program, you will learn the who, what, where, why and how of herbalism from a cultural perspective that respects the experience and healing knowledge of highly melanated people. Most herbal programs do not acknowledge nor include these indigenous and spiritual experiences. Therefore some are afraid of natural healing. We propose to break this stigma by teaching a different perspective. Learn how to use the herbs to help heal your family and address common ailments during a time where our very survival depends on us taking charge of our own health. 

 

The course can be completed at your own pace. However, for the purposes of evaluation, we ask that you try to adhere to the modules. This course is a pilot, which means the first ten to enroll and complete it have the opportunity to evaluate it and be an essential part of the development of the course. Therefore, the cost of this course is $500.00. An alternate payment plan can be requested using Afterpay, or Square by contacting us to set it up for you. Payments by Square can be made over eight weeks.  

​

There is no certification or licensing for herbalism. This program is not accredited by any governing body and cannot certify you as an herbalist. In the United States, herbalism is protected by the 1st amendment. There is the Registered Herbalist (RH) AHG designation by the American Herbalist Guild for Clinical Herbalists. However, it is not mandatory that one go through that process. This is an introductory course. Upon completion of the class you will be awarded a certificate of completion.
