“I love it. Each section has been so informative. I’m happy with what is included, and the instructors are varied and knowledgeable. Learning about each herb and its benefits has begun a never-ending journey for me. The Community Herbalist Program is a great stepping stone into the massive world of herbal medicine.”
“I was enjoying the Home Herbalist Program and wanted to keep going—I’m happy with the Community Herbalist Program so far. Very well organized, easy to follow, loving learning more about our plant allies.”
“I highly recommend this program to anyone wanting to learn more about herbalism. The instructors are fantastic, the online courses are high quality, and the included textbooks are full of knowledge that you’ll find yourself referring to on a day-to-day basis. I think that there is something for everyone in this program, no matter what your relationship is to plants and herbs.“
