Jennifer J sets her alarm clock early to study!
I first started buying herbs when I wasn’t feeling good and trying to stay healthy. I started doing research on herbs and that is how I found about this course and decided to sign up. I can’t tell you how much I have learned and loved every step of it. I set my alarm clock earlier before work so I could get up and read since I really enjoyed taking this course. (I was almost late for work a couple times because I was so involved in learning that time just flew). The times I was on my computer learning were times I was not stressing or thinking about anything else. Since herbs are all about health, I have totally changed my eating habits and have lost weight and feel healthier. I also feel that I have learned enough that I can help a relative or friend if they need ...

Julie C…This was an amazing course!
This was an amazing course! I’m a heady person who loves to study, an academic. I tend to read, read, read and study, study, study without getting my hands into it. This course forced me to taste the herbs, to brew them, to make recipes, to experiment. In that, I received the skills to get started and the curiosity to keep going! Not only do I have a great cabinet of recipes and formulas, but I have the tools to continue with my studies and to learn more. Over the summer, I plan to read all of Rosemary’s books and keep making recipes and having a blast learning more and more. I feel empowered to reference books and think about options for self and others. And, I am inspired to keep going! I have purchased many recommended books (from this course’s recommendations) and have a lovely summer reading list as ...

Eva J remembered that there’s magic all around us
What I appreciated most were Rosemary’s stories and life lessons. Her voice and commonsense wisdom. I found it cozy, thorough, inspiring, and wanting more. I loved the spiritual and mystical aspects sprinkled throughout, and would’ve loved more of that! It benefitted me by reminding me of what’s important, that there’s magic all around us, and helped me to remember what we all know as children—that there’s love surrounding us, the power of nature to heal, the power of joy to heal, and that flower fairies exist.

Katie A is blown away by what she has learned!
I started this course without much understanding of what herbs could do, even after years of poking around with herbalism, and now that I am at the end of this course, I am continually blown away by what I have learned and absorbed about herbalism. I feel confident about healing myself and those who ask for my help, continuing my education in a way that honors those plant allies, and growing these green friends with great success. The course has given me real tangible agency over my own health and wellbeing, something I do not take lightly! I am incredibly grateful for what I have learned and how it has been incorporated into my daily life: the course is exceptional!

Karin S. says This is the course to start with
I am honoured to have had the opportunity to take this introductory course compiled by one of today’s most influential and well-loved herbalists, Rosemary Gladstar. I enjoyed the personal anecdotes that Rosemary shared throughout each lesson to help bring the teachings of our herbal allies to life. The course shows her dedication to folk medicine traditions and to keeping herbalism accessible for all people. I now feel confident in the knowledge of herbal medicine making (and have a well-stocked pantry of fantastic homemade remedies made throughout the course), have an extensive Materia Medica, my own hand-drawn herbarium, and a renewed passion for working with healing herbs. I appreciated the thoughtful personal comments provided by the various teachers reading my homework lessons, as they were always thorough, encouraging and supportive. A unique aspect about this course was that the concluding lessons provided guided questions and exercises for personal reflection: reflection on ...

Sherry L. says her journey grew into more than she could have ever imagined!
What began as a simple journey to become knowledgeable about ways to use plants to enhance the health and well-being of my family, grew into more than I could have ever imagined. Rosemary created a beautifully rich program on which I was able to feast and deepen my understanding of using plants as medicine. Her guest herbalists offered a variety of topics and teaching styles that complemented the program well while introducing me to herbalists that were previously unknown to me. The feast continues to grow as I become more connected with the plants and the herbal community. For anyone interested in learning how to live a more intentional lifestyle with plants to support health, I highly encourage them to take this course and savor what this inspiring education has to offer! Sherry L,
