We focus on the time-honoured locally abundant and easy to grow herbs as well as those currently available in the marketplace. After this year, you won't be a beginner anymore! "You know, I've studied herbalism, read a lot
of books and gone to a lot of different workshops in the last 6 years. Why has no one ever told me all this before?" Anne M.
Introduction to Traditional Plant Spirit Healing or Level 2, also starts yearly in May but is comprised of six two-day weekends, Saturday and Sunday, over a year. This level allows for a deeper experience of healing at the soul level through developing a meaningful relationship with a Plant Ally. "I am very grateful for Burdock's patience and love. I feel
unique and a part of the grater whole at the same time" Debbie C.
