Program begins 9/13/2016 and 6/27/2017.
In this 9-month, 300-hour certification program, you will gain an in-depth understanding of the complex functions and healing nature of local plants through theoretical learning, herb gathering and sampling, and medicine making. A substantial number of class hours are spent hands on in nature, with extended trips to local environments such as the Sierras and the Pacific Ocean. You will create your own medicines, learning how to craft extracts from multiple solutions, as well as creating creams and lotions, salves, teas, syrups, honey, oils, vinegars and suppositories.
