What a visual description of this herbal course! Thanks for giving us a vision of what our week would look like while becoming an herbalist. Also my favorite thing that I can't wait to start on is my space! I believe that once we can create space for- anything- we can achieve it- mentally and physically. With that said- I'm excited to share that space and knowledge with others. Thanks guys, ya'll are the sweetest.

I love the way everything is presented, broken down and really explained (not just "walk around your neighborhood and identify herbs"- they really tell you HOW to do it!). I've already chosen my first herb of the month, made some tea with it and even designed my monograph (I love designing, so couldn't wait to get started on a template!)! So excited to really get going on the modules!
