Herbal Apprenticeship

I am very excited about an apprenticeship program I'll be taking over the next six months! Here's the info:

This course will provide an informative and experience-based foundation for the life-long journey of becoming a practitioner of herbal medicine. In the traditional apprenticeship way of learning, we will study diverse plants & their healing properties, herbal preparations for health & remedies for particular conditions, wild edibles, wild-crafting & selected anatomy & physiology. You will prepare diverse forms of medicine including infusions, decoctions, tinctures, creams, salves & more! The course will bring a holistic and earth-based perspective to health & healing and ways of deepening our sacred relationship with the plants in our bones & hearts, remembering them as the ancient teachers, nourishers, healers, & friends they have always been to us.

Tammi Sweet LMT, MS (Neurobiology) & Kris Miller LMT, MA (Clinical Psychology) bring over 45 years of experience as teachers & healing practitioners to the course. Passionate lovers of plants & life itself, they love to teach in ways that nourish your own aliveness & curiosity, healing & fun. Students of Rosemary Gladstar, Pam

Montgomery and Tom Brown Jr., & generations of teachers & elders, they are delighted to welcome you to this 1st year of apprenticeship at their Heartstone Herbal School.



I'm thrilled to be embarking on an herbal adventure, and look forward to adding natural remedies to my practice in the future.
