HERBAL APPRENTICESHIP PROGRAM
Join herbalist, herb-grower, wild-crafter, and medicine-maker Jessy Delleman for this 8 month long journey in herbal studies. In this program focused on direct plant connection, students will work hands-on with medicinal plant allies at the farm and wild in the surrounding fields and forests. Classes will take place in nature out in the elements working directly with the plants (there will be a limited amount of time spent sitting in a classroom setting).
FOREST MEDICINE INTENSIVES
Join herbalist, herb farmer, wildcrafter and medicine maker Jessy Delleman for this five week intensive on working with our herbal allies of the West Coast forest. During this 5 week program, each class will center around one of our native medicinal forest plants and will incorporate plant spirit work, plant identification, materia medica, ethical wild harvesting, and medicine making. At the end of each class students will go home with detailed handouts on course material, a herbal product that they prepared in class, and will be steeped in connection to their new herbal ally in the forest.
