“Going to herbalism school has been a dream of mine for over 10 years. Herbalism Roots was the best choice I could have made. With plant walks where we I.D. various plants, to our weekend glamping trip and medicine-making classes, I knew from the beginning that I was in the right place. Kim and Martin bring a wealth of experience and knowledge to each class.”
