Essential Herbalism Foundations Program

with Shelley Torgove, Clinical Herbalist & Herbal Educator

Under the Linden Tree: Hands-On Herbal Medicine Circles

with Kirsten Dehmlow, Certified Community Herbalist
Centennial, CO

Herbal wisdom belongs to everyone.
Learning how to harvest and use plants is an act of remembering—reconnecting with the ancestral knowledge that lives in our bones and kitchens, waiting to be reawakened.

Working with herbs is an act of self-trust.
When we begin to bring plants into our daily rhythms, we reclaim our power, deepen our intuition, and become stewards of our own well-being.

Healing is hands-on.
This offering is more than a course—it’s a living, breathing experience. You’ll not only gain deep knowledge through Shelley’s comprehensive teachings, but you’ll also root that learning in practice—touching, tasting, making, and sharing remedies in community.

What You’ll Receive:
