Imagine you are walking through the forest near your home.

As you look around you, you start noticing the plants growing nearby. Imagine knowing each of these plants; understanding how to use them, when to harvest them and which parts to use. Envision being able to make these plants into medicines such as salves, oils, pills, syrups and tinctures. How would it feel to help others use these herbal medicines for healing purposes? These are the skills of an herbalist. Are you ready to follow the path less traveled? Are you interested in deepening your connection with plants and the earth? It is time to get excited about plants and awaken your passion for natural healing! Green Path Herb School empowers students to use medicinal plants for themselves, their families and as professional herbalists. We offer several herb programs designed for the beginning student to the advanced practitioner. Our main courses are Herbalist Certificate Program and Herbal Foundations, with upcoming self paced programs. We are now accepting applications for the Herbalist Certificate Program.


 

What students are saying

Green Path Herb School changed my life. I come from a long lineage of traditional medicine makers, with practices and rituals rooted in my heritage, but I had always wanted to expand my knowledge by way of “herbalism”. There were many courses I found that could train me in European Western Herbalism, but I feel so grateful to my guides for leading me to Elaine and John’s door. Both teachers and their programs informed me, challenged me, and strengthened me. John and Elaine are both so passionate about herbal medicine and you could really feel that in their presentations and teachings. As a person of color, I felt safe and respected. I would recommend their school to everyone.

The Herbal Foundations Program at Green Path Herb School has to be one of the most engaging and technically proficient programs that I have taken. Having a background in Biochemistry, I was thoroughly impressed with Elaine and John’s ability to teach not only how to safely extract the healing properties of medicinal plants but also why they are so effective in treatment. I would highly recommend this program to anyone starting their journey into understanding the healing power of plants. Justin John

Being a student at Green Path Herb School was a significant experience that has impacted my life both personally and professionally. I gained a deeper understanding of holistic medicine, a strong foundation in herbal medicine making, and knowledge of medicinal plants. Learning about medicinal plants, both in the classroom and in the field, helped to give me a sense of grounding and place. This herbal education has helped define my path in life; I am forever grateful to Green Path for opening my eyes to the world of plant medicine!
