Everyday Herbalism - online

Every home used to have someone who cared for the health and well-being of the family. They were the knowledge keepers, the health-makers.

Have you felt called to step back into this important role and provide vital support for your family’s daily health and well-being? Or perhaps the plants are calling you into great relationship and connection with the earth?

Everyday Herbalism is the perfect course to reclaim your ancestral home herbal wisdom!

This is the companion course to our award-winning Herbal Starter Kit – you can take it as a stand-alone or get huge bargain, not to mention convenience, when you bundle it with the kit.

Course starts Tuesday October 8, 2024 (course runs only once a year).

Embodied Herbalism - Herbal Tastes

Our taste buds are a potent gateway to deeply understanding herbal medicine.

Herbal tastes give us patterns for how herbs might work in our body (based on what constituents are present) and what the best medicine-making technique will be for each herb.

In this deeply experiential course, you’ll build your own relationship with the herbs through direct experience with the 5 major tastes: pungent, bitter, sweet, salty and sour.

This course runs once/ year. It’ll be back around February 2025.

Want to remember how to feel at home in the natural world?

In this 3 or 6 month seasonal journey of foraging, medicinal gardening and medicine-making you’ll get your hands dirty and your heart full.

This bio-regional herbal medicine course will introduce you to plants that grow abundantly in our subtropical region of the Sunshine Coast – both wild and in the garden.

You’ll learn to grow or forage, when to harvest for optimal medicinal content, how to process, dry and store and then actually make remedies — we’ll cover it all. 

This course brings it all together, and is ultimately designed around connecting deeply with place, to feel a sense of belonging and familiarity and to bloom where you’re planted.

Still in development – so final details coming second half 2024.

This will be an in-person course on the Sunshine Coast, probably running over autumn and winter 2025.
