You might be surprised that what you thought was a common weed is actually a valuable medicine! They are everywhere! These are the plants that were brought with people as medicines as they migrated to new parts of the world. The plants have taken root and luckily we now have easy access to their healing gifts.

The most important medicine we have is what we can harvest for ourselves.

It is easily accessible

This is the best quality

It’s free

It will always be there for us

If there’s anything you learn about herbal medicine, it should be about how to find plants.

We find medicinal plants in our backyards, gardens, nearby forests, old farm fields and even growing through cracks in city sidewalks. You can easily learn herbal remedies which are helpful for many common ailments. This course covers the most popular herbal remedies found in almost all regions of the world.

When to harvest each plant for the greatest efficiency

How to use each plant for ultimate health and wellness

With extensive experience in botany, she is one of the best botanical instructors in the world. Best of all, she’s there for you throughout the course to answer all of your questions. This is incredible value!

Why is this course not accredited?

Almost every online course (unless it’s a large university) that claims to be accredited, in fact. They are simply bogus credentials from real looking websites used as a marketing scam in order to sell more courses. Elizabeth, like any experienced herbalist, teaches with ethics and integrity and will absolutely not be misleading for marketing purposes. On the contrary, his students are sincerely respected and honored. None of its courses therefore claim to be accredited.
