Joanna Helms, registered herbalist and professional member of the American Herbalist Guild (AHG), is pleased to announce the Fundamentals of Herbalism course will begin mid to late March and run through August.

The course is a 6-month, on-site program meeting Saturdays. It consists of lectures and hands-on experience.

In response to great demand, Helms developed the course to provide a deeper understanding of the art and science of herbalism.

Combining her more than two decades of clinical experience, historical strategies, and current research, Helms offers students a solid foundation for understanding herbalism.

Classes will provide an introduction to both Western Herbalism and Chinese Theory as they apply to the body systems. In addition, the course includes an herb walk and introduction to herbal applications and creating your own herbal remedies.

Each week students will receive an array of herbal teas and a live plant to start their own native, medicinal garden. Participants may register for the entire course or for individual classes.
