It is the best money I've ever spent… the information and educational aspect is priceless and saves me so much time when searching for specifics, for my homework, for my materia medica and so on. I can’t say enough how much I love The Herbarium site…
Virginia
Love Herbal Academy and the articles in The Herbarium. I received my Intermediate Studies Certificate 2 yrs ago and can’t wait to take the Entrepreneurial Course. The information in The Herbarium has been a great resource to support my studies.
Teri, Homestead Honey
I find that I hold back on using herbs as much as I would like to because I don’t feel fully confident about how to use them. I love that a community of herb-lovers and herb-learners can come together on The Herbarium site and share their knowledge and questions.
