We’d love to learn more about using herbal medicine for strength, prevention and healing. We opted out of the flu shot but would still like to feel armed for the season. It’s nice to know that such a school exists so close to home.

Thank you for offering this workshop at such a time. So many in the community are feeling stressed or torn about how to respond. Our families health is a place of deep and primal concern and it is so easy to be motivated by fear or discouraged by the complexity and diversity of information in the public purview. I have always wanted to attend one of your workshops and with a family of three children, all unvaccinated, I would love to learn some new perspectives on supporting their health without invasive or suppressive methodologies.

I think it is better to use herbals whenever possible.
We have no interest in the vaccine hype, and, therefore, wish to strengthen ourselves naturally. We are eager to learn more.

I know my children and I would greatly benefit from this workshop. It would be an honor to attend.

Always looking for more ways to empower myself as a mother. Learning more about the herbs we have to heal us has always been something I’ve wanted to do.

This sounds like just the thing I want to attend. My mom uses herbal medicine and has taught me for years of its power but I have so much to learn!

I have a daughter with a small fever RIGHT NOW, and was just wishing that I knew more than I did. Thank you for this empowering information!

This is exactly the kind of course I have been looking for! We too have been using Elderberry this season. Yesterday fevers and sore throats. Today we just got back from a hike!! I’m amazed and would love to learn more.

We’ve been taking elderberry syrup with fantastic results all season – but it’s nearly out! I’d love to find out about other natural remedies to keep sickness at bay this winter (and beyond). ~H

Wow this sounds like an amazing workshop! I keep saying I will learn more about the use of medicinal herbs but never get around to it. Hopefully this time!
